[BlindTlk] Finding Barcodes on Products

I have it on an old Nokia n82 phone, and it works sort of, but it's hard to 
know when it's facing correctly so it will really be able to read things 
fully.  Sometimes it's wonderful, and sometimes, stuff comes out as 
gibberish.  For bar codes, I use the id mate, and it's hard to find bar 
codes, so I will listen to this and see if it helps.  Pam.

That’s a good question! I haven’t looked into it yet. Long ago I paid for 
KNFB reader and now I can’t get it to work. That’s a lot of money down the 
tube! At that time it cost $99.
