[Blind-rollers] success in the UK

[maureensmusic at comcast.net]

Hi
I have the Quantum 600 and have not heard of the Quantum Artimos, The 600
has a joy stick, tilt, head rest, 4 speeds, attendant control, and like 8
wheels.  I didn't like it at first because it drives like a tank and my
previous 600 was more maneuverable but the previous one is no longer made.

Thanks to those who sent replies about my new chair. I remember some
discussion on list a few years back about certain models being better for
blind people. I think someone mentioned the Quantum 600. I'm curious how
different this is to the Quantum artemis (which I now have). 
Thoughts? 
Cheers again
Erica.
