[nabs-l] Blio and E-Book Readers

[Peter Donahue]

Hello Joseph and everyone,

    Rather than messing with Nook, Kindle and company why not use Blio. It 
was developed by KNFB Reading Technology and was designed with access for 
blind and sighted people in mind. The NFB played a major role in helping to 
develop this product. I'd strongly suggest seriously investigating Blio 
instead of e-book solutions whose accessibility is next to none or 
nonexistent. Find out more by visiting:
http://www.blio.com

    We have Blio installed on one of our devices and love it. It's a great 
product. Now to add more books to our collection.

The Nook is completely inaccessible at last look.  The Kindle can be
accessible, if the publisher wants it to be.  How well it works
you’ll have to ask others—I use an iPad myself.  *grin*
