[Electronics-talk] Blaze EZ vs. K-NFB Reader

[Christine Szostak]

HI All,
  Just curious, I was listening to some of the recordings from iBlink Radio from the NFB convention and had a question that I was curious if anyone could confirm or deny.

  During the presentation for the Blaze and Braille Sense, the presenter mentioned that a first shipment went out and that they then promptly ran out and will be doing a second wave. There are two reasons this comment is really seeming odd to me:

1)  Their website still says shipping soon

2)  I ordered back in May when the announcement was still quite new.

  Thus, does anyone know if they have actually begun shipping at all and if not, why this comment may have been made. I have had a lot of trouble getting in touch with Hims and the most they have told me in response is it will be coming around Aug 15th (almost two months after the original estimated ship date).

  I am actually considering dropping my order and just trying out the K-NFB reader. Does anyone know if it is going to work on the iPod Touch. i know it is supposed to work on 5S phones and they said that 4S phones will work if you are running IOS 7.
Happy weekend all!
