where do you get the docs from? to my knowledge there's only the user
guide on the VFO web site?

Good Monday to you, one and all
As you may remember me saying last week, I have an ElBraille now on
order. I’m expecting it some time next week, as the UK dealer is not
carrying stocks of this item for some reason.
Anyway, in advance of the device arriving, I have broken my tradition
of not bothering with user manuals, and have spent some time reading
the docs.
It struck me the other day when I was thinking about the KNFB reader
for Windows 10, what a great companion that would be for the
ElBraille. I’m probably going to buy that one product, although I am
curtailing most of my purchasing activities on line as of now in order
to save funds. My bathroom is about to be gutted, and turned into a
“Wet Room”, costing me a walking four grand in the process.
But, I digress. It struck me, as I say, when reading the specs of the
ElBraille, that there is no in-built camera of any sort. This seems
like a real omission, given that the use and availability of OCR
products is now widespread and, of course, a blind person would most
likely require that functionality.
Windows 10 is installed on the machine, of course. So to me, it would
make perfect sense for them to have included an internal camera for
this purpose. Also, utilities such as Skype could have taken advantage
of this as well. That really would have made the ElBraille a very
attractive portable solution for the masses.
As it stands, however, I have no regrets. I am still looking forward
to having my Focus 14 Blue integrated into a portable, versatile and
powerful system.
More when I receive the device.
