I don't know if this helps or not, but I started out way way back with the Kurzweil Personal Reader after having used the optacon for many years. I now have the KNFB Mobile, the phone of which I have retired, keeping the reader in full use for now. Eventually, I will look for one of these for the iPhone. However, not everyone is going to be happy with the same products. This will be a little like Kurzweil versus Open Book or something else. The main thing is that you use what give you the quality you wish and ease of use.
Some of my friends who have never had vision ever seem to have a bit more trouble with the camera concepts than some of us who have had partial vision for a time, though with practice, you can master this. With my readers, I like to be able to move through the text by character, word, line, and sentence as well as get an overall read of the document with reasonable clarity. I am thinking that with the prices of these apps, one may have more of an opportunity to try a couple of these to find what works best for you. As I say, I will explore this as I gain more experience with the iPhone itself. Perhaps, one day, someone like Dr. Kurzweil or others will develop something for iPhone, though I understand the development of products of this nature for iPhone is an expensive undertaking. I tend to believe that the apps now available will only get better with time and that being able to purchase a product right off the shelf for immediate use at the same price as everyone else is quite something to be pleased with.
