Thanks for passing this info along to us.  What is the name of the scanning 
program, and is there a website where I might go to learn more about it?

Cordially,
Rafael Bejarano

Subject: found scanning program for the Mac

Hi guys.
I wanted to tell y'all about the scanning program that I saw at the exhibits at 
NFB today. True, it costs $1200, but it comes with a camera sort of like the 
Purl camera.

I had to get it going for them because the guy that knew about it wasn't at the 
table at the time I showed up. He came right after I got it going. It wouldn't 
talk at first. Who knows where it was on the screen. Like OpenBook, you don't 
use the screen reader while it's running. However, I had to turn their 
VoiceOver on, press command q and get out of their program, and then call it 
back up again, after I turned off their track pad. The person that was sitting 
there keeping watch while the developer was gone for a little bit, I guess was 
a Windows user. Anyway, I got the program going.

The developer that came back was very knowledgeable. He told me they had a 
former Kurzweil engineer with them. When I did the scan, it reading was 
incredibly good, even in the light my husband said was glaring on the paper.

I have a Purl camera I am considering selling. It doesn't have much use on it, 
and maybe I ought to sell OpenBook while I'm at it. However, I don't know if I 
can. The state gave me OpenBook, but I bought the Purl camera myself. I'll have 
to find out what I can do about OpenBook.
