[Reader-users] just curious

[David Evans]

Dear Will,

I can give you only one guarantee about life.  You aint going to get out of 
it alive!
I can remember back in the 1950's and 1960's when aircraft, that were 
cutting edge were obsolete almost before they were off the drawing board. 
The technology was just moving that fast.  The same is happening in 
electronics and software development today.
If you expect your computer to remain top of the line for more than 4 to 5 
years, it is not going to happen.
The KNFB Reader is no different.  You have to pick them as best you can but 
don't blame the developers for making progress.
If it does what they said it would and you bought it based on that; You got 
what you paid for.  If something comes along tomorrow that is just a little 
bit better, that's life.
