Oh yes Mike,
I understand what you are saying,
where I wouldn't give up the Prodigy anything like that.
I would love to get something else working, just wanted to know if 
anyone has tried it.
Are you testing at this time, or just trying to learn how to read the app?
If you are testing, do you have to get special strips for this, or what 
happens.
I would love to read up on this, just because I am interested that 
something can be on the phone.
Would this be something that we would ask apple to work on the app for 
blind persons?
Or anyone losing their site?
Just more thoughts.
Thanks,
