[Reader-users] problem solved/those writing the manuals forthisting--please listen up!

[Kim Morrow]

I got my reader from KES. And--why did I then receive a manual written for
the NFB-style machine? If they're going to sell a reader, they need to have
a manual that reflects the style of the unit that was purchased. That would
be like having a Nokia phone and getting a manual for a Sansone.

Kimberly:

Did you get your Reader from NFB or K E S? The descriptions you've seen are 
of the one from NFB.

            Okay, folks-I took a gamble and it paid off. I didn't see any
recessed buttons on the power end of the PDA, but what I did see was this
round button that had a cloth-like or sponge-like structure covering it. I
was never sure what that button was-because it didn't appear to be described
in the manual, and there *is* a round button on the unit that is
nonfunctional for our purposes. But at this point-zero from zero was zero,
so I decided to take a gamble and press on that sponge-covered button-and
the unit reset!



That button is not what I would define "recessed". And also-for those used
to working by touch, it would be extremely helpful if, in future editions of
the manual, this button could be described as having a cloth or sponge-like
covering. That would make it instantly recognizable to a blind person.
