All I will say is this: if it hasn't been done already, please post a review
of the app if you have used it. The rest of this discussion has quickly gone
to being meaningless. Didn't we have the same discussion for Fleksi,
M-braille, and any other app that costs more than .99?

Hello everybody:

NAVIGON does have that I wish this new application would integrate. NAVIGON

Having purchased the app already, I can confirm that this application pulls its

I believe Navigon retails for about $59 most of the time. I agree though that
you can get it on sale occasionally. I didn't hear any discussions about having
free Demeau's and such when that application was released. How is this
different?

With the greatest of respect, I disagree with the note below. The seeing eye
application does provide additional description of intersections and actually
provides true turn by turn directions that are usable by a blind person in a
fashion that is much better than the other applications. For exa

I do agree that Voice Dream has a far more advanced set of features. There is
very little that app won't do in regards to reading any kind of document.
However, I still use Read2Go more often, for one reason. I really don't like
the Acapella or NeoSpeech voices. I vastly prefer to read text file
Funny. I figured she just didn't want to be ripped off. As has been said on

exactly as accessible as the Seeing Eye app. They also don't charge you for
updates. The Trecker, while more expensive, also doesn't charge you for map

I know this list is for discussion of apps, but is it also for arguing about

immaterial, the important thing is that it is out there and available, isn't
