Hi Gordon No problem, and if anyone else wants a copy, Email me off list. I write a lot of reviews Gordon, so if you would like to add these too, let me know. It is all about sharing information after all.

Technology Enthusiasm! Subject: Re: Abisee Eye-Pal ROL Hi Jackie I'd very much appreciate a copy of your review and, if you wouldn't mind, we'd love to put up the review on our blog? I can also confirm if anybody is interested that I plan to review the Eye-Pal ROL which I now have, along with the ViewPlus EmBraille embosser, the Freedom Scientific Sara CE and its sister product the Focus 40 Braille display. I know that these are not exactly new technologies. But I plan to review them anyway as they appear to me.
