Hi,
Another option is to get a netbook, desktop, or laptop computer 
on sale.  I
got my netbook for under $200 one time after Christmas when a lot 
of things
went on sale.
Hth,
Misty

 Sarah,

 Net books are not that much money.  Perhaps, the Lyon's club or 
rotary
 club, or elks club or whatnot can sponsor you for one.  If all 
else fails,
 you can get a refurbished desktop for under $100.

 Sara,
 You need to learn a computer, it will allow you  to go to more 
websites.
 If you are a student your vr office should purchase a computer 
and a
 screen
 reader.  If you are a public school student, your TVI should be 
helping
 you
 learn pc skills.  If they do not, shame on them.
 You can learn pc skills at a summer camp then.

 I've heard many websites don't work well on a braille note.
 That is since they have flash and frames.  I cannot think of 
many free
 sites;
 youtube is one.
 You could also buy it from FYE probably.

 it anywhere because on mpblecskull you hffbe logged into
 4share.com and I can't get that to work on the Bn.  If easier,
 could someone please send me the song in mp3 format to my Email
 address? Thanks!

 Sarah and Wizard

 Subject: Re: [nabs-l] described videos

 Hi all:

 There is another, far more reliable source for descriptive 
films,
 and
 these films come on DVDs, as Ashley originally requested.

 I'm not entirely sure on specifics in terms of how far this
 service's
 archives go back, so it may not have *everything* that you 
wanted
 Ashley, though I know it has at least the last three Harry 
Potter
 movies, and it's an invaluable resource for newer films.

 A law was passed in the United Kingdom, ensuring that all films
 (this
 excludes DVD releases of seasons of telivision series'
 unfortunately)
 produced after a certain year (and this is where my recollection
 of
 dates becomes hazy) were required to have DVS services included.
 They
 are standard DVDs, bought easily from Amazon.co.uk.

 The DVS can easily be turned on or off, if a sighted individual
 finds
 it intrusive.  It is in the language options within the main DVD
 menu.
 It's iether the first or second option, so easily navigable.  As
 long
 as a blind user memorized what steps were required through their
 DVD
 remote, it is possible to turn the service on or off.

 I would imagine that a quick Google search of UK descriptive
 films
 would net you some concrete information regarding how far back
 you can
 expect the description to be present.  One final tidbit: Many
 films
 that are rereleases of older films also have description, seeing
 as
 the rerelease now falls under the law.  So, while the original
 might
 not, if the rerelease falls within the timeline of the law, it's
 a
 very good garuntee that it will.  All films that I've ever
 attempted
 to purchase after the law's passage have had description; they
 are a
 bit more expensive, of course, due to the exchange rate, but
 that's a
 small price to pay, imho.
