Good evening everyone. Here is an e-mail I got about the KNFB reader and the NFB news line.
Connie Looking for holiday ideas? Give the gift of print this holiday season through NFB-NEWSLINE and KNFB Reader. Tell a friend or family member about NFB-NEWSLINE! NFB-NEWSLINE now offers over 350 newspapers like the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and the New York Times; along with breaking news from news sources such as CNN, BBC, ABC News, CBS News and ESPN Online; and over 50 magazines like Time, Smithsonian, Reader's Digest, Every Day with Rachel Ray, PC World and Macworld. There are also TV listings, job listings, emergency weather reports, and weather forecasts, not to mention retail ads from Target and our holiday ads from Giant, Home Depot, Kohl's, Publix, Sears, Staples, Toys R Us, and Walgreen's. Tell a friend about NFB-NEWSLINE, or better yet, help them sign up by calling (866) 504-7300 or visiting www.nfbnewsline.org. Give the gift of print through access to news and information with NFB-NEWSLINE. And it's still free to use and free to sign up! KNFB-Reader is another way to give the gift of print. KNFB Reader is a mobile app that reads print aloud. It's easy to use. Take a photo and the app reads the text aloud in clear synthetic speech. And it's fast-the print will be yours almost instantaneously. KNFB Reader will be on sale for $74.99 from December 21st through January 4th. This sale price of 25% off makes it the perfect gift for a friend or family member. Giving KNFB Reader as a gift is easy! You can obtain iTunes or Google Play gift cards at many local retailers such as Target or Walmart, or online at Amazon.com. To learn more about giving KNFB Reader as a gift this holiday season, visit www.nfb.org/knfbreader. Why use this app? The KNFB Reader is an easy, fast, accurate, and efficient text recognition mobile app that delivers near instantaneous results. Tired of being unsure what's been charged to your credit card? Want to know who sent you that package? Need nutritional information from a food label? Find a book that's not available in audio format? Buy a new appliance and want to access the user's manual? KNFB Reader is your go-to: it has reading modes for books, articles, labels, bills, and memos. Worried about getting a good photo of your text as a blind person? KNFB Reader provides a field of view report and tilt guidance for more accurate capturing of print in the photograph, as well as automatic text detection. You'll get the right photo; KNFB Reader will help you. The app allows for high quality digital output to speech or connected Braille displays. The scanned material can be imported as a .jpg or .pdf, or exported in .txt and .html formats. Not much space on your phone? No problem. Use cloud storage for your files via Dropbox or Google Drive! The app also has a batch scan mode to process and read multiple-page documents such as manuals or books. Don't let print be out of your reach ever again. Make the print yours, live the life you want, and have a wonderful holiday season and a happy new year from your friends at NFB-NEWSLINE. The KNFB Reader is developed by the National Federation of the Blind and Sensotec NV. The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

Subject: Re: KNFB Reader to be Discounted 25% from 12/21/15 - 1/4/16 Well, there's something that's telling me you should ignore that inner voice. KNFB reader has never been discounted below $74.99 so far and I'd be very surprised if it ever dropped to the price you stated.

This is an excellent app for capturing and recognizing text which is spoken to you on your iDevice and I strongly recommend anyone who doesn't have it to take advantage of this special starting December 21st.
