Well, your response certainly has the possibility of real truth because of
the motives of people. I won't disagree with you. there's lots of politics
in the whole issue. It's unfortunate, but there it is.

Cheree Heppe here:
Yes, well and good for Handy Tech, but ....
The Apple stores sells a service plan where anyone can get tutoring for
$99.00 from any Apple store for I think two years, along with the hardware
support plan. No special anything.
They're just trying to tap into the current rehab-based, rather than the
emerging community-based blindness access using the perceived requirements
of a new paradigm.
We have to allow ourselves into the mainstream community in the tech area,
among others, in order to give real credence to our claims that we are
not, after all, dependent on separate but equal, special, extra training
by carefully selected experts, who thrive based on the separate is
necessary modality.

Hello Carolyn,
Handytech now sells macs and when you buy one, you get their tutorial for
Macs. they've developed a dvd that they sell for 470 for their training.
they offer workshops as you mentioned. three day workshops on the mac.
they
seem to be expanding this all over the country. I hear there's one in
Tennesee either this month or next.
I have their braillino notetaker which I use with my mac.

Hi guys:
I decided to look more closely at the braille display options offered by
handytech. While on their website, I learned that they have developed
their
own manual, workbook and tutorial, as well as a 3 day workshop for
learning
the mac with voiceover. I was kind of excited to learn this, as it's
another possible resource,. And I love tracking things down.
So, I'm wondering if anyone else has had any experiences with them, the
workshop, or their products. They are beginning to take their workshop
on
the road to different states. It would be very cool to get involved
with,
if there were enough people in a state to request a workshop.
Any info welcome.
Carolyn
