It's appropriate to charge for shipping if you are paying to have it shipped.  
It is not if you are shipping free matter.

  I think it’s perfectly appropriate for NFB to charge for shipping.

  How much are they charging? 

  Since I got no reply, just wondering.

    They have them.  Note they charge for free mater shipping.  Typical NFB not 
helping the blind but screwing them over.

    The Fopydo stand is my first choice, but he was having major issues with 
his Post Office refusing to send things free matter unless he went through a 
bunch of hoops to get a special permit.

    At one point, the Independence Market of the NFB was considering carrying 
them.

    I wrote them, but have not had a response in 10 days.

      Since you wrote to the iPhone list, I'm guessing you plan to do this with 
an iPhone. 

      I do not know of any scanners that work with iPhones, beyond what you can 
do with the iPhone camera itself.

      For A4 documents, I'm assuming these are text documents, I think Voice 
Dream Scanner is the best solution:

      You may also want a scanning stand so you don't have to hold the phone 
about 12 inches above the document if you are doing a ton of these.

      Is the plan for the photos to just digitize them?

      If so, just use the Camera and have someone sighted crop them so just 
your photo is left.

      With photos, you want to follow the same distance ratio as with 
documents, and have the phone about as far above the photo as the photo is tall.

      That could get tricky which is why you will need sighted assistance to 
crop the picture later.

        Hi listers,

        I need to get a scanner for photos and A4 documents. Wireless would be 
nice but not if expensive. The main project is a load of photos my wife has but 
doesn’t have the time to scan them herself. Therefore it is my job to do the 
tedious task and it would be nice to have simple software that could detect the 
edges of the photos automatically and prefereably be voice over accessible. Any 
suggestions?

        Thanks
        Ian
