[gui-talk] iphone

[Baracco, Andrew W]

The camera in the iPhone is very much inferior to the cameras used in
the phones supported by the KNFB reader, so it is unlikely that you will
get acceptable results for text reading.

Hi,
I'm not sure about the OCR capacity. Like I explained, I just got mine
yesterday.

Hi Denise --
So is it true that you can run the IPhone as a reader? Can you snap a
pic 
and have the IPhone scan and read it?
Or is the speech only for menus and basic operation?  I guess all you'd
need

is an OCR package.
Hmm. This is interesting...
How do you like your IPhone now that you have bought it?
Do you have a mac already so are familiar with VoiceOver?
Thanx

Hello,

I just bought an iphone yesterday. I learned a great deal about the
iphone
and voice over by listening to podcasts from accessible world,
blindcooltech
and serotech.

Further, mark taylor at www.candleshoreblog.com has a lot of podcasts
and
the iphone manual on his web page. So if you want to know more, you can
look
at these resources.
