Introducing the all-new, upgraded PenFriend 2 Voice Labeling System! This
best-selling, low cost, audio labeler for the blind and visually impaired
lets you label anything and everything with discreet audio labels all in
your own voice. Easily record and re-record information using this
versatile, pocket-sized, easy-to-use labeling system. You can instantly play
back the recordings anywhere simply using the PenFriend 2 - no computer
required.

The upgraded PenFriend 2 is slimmer in design that the original model and
has four simple yellow tactile operating buttons that contrast against the
black casing of the device. These buttons are designed to make it easier for
the blind or visually impaired user to locate and use. 

Another new feature is an easy to use on/off recording function that
prevents you from having to hold the record button when recording. 

Use to label food/freezer items, film/music collections or household
objects. Organize letters and other paperwork. Record shopping lists or
leave audio messages, or use it as a portable note-taker at the office or
classroom - just record your message and keep track of it by placing the
allocated label in a small notebook.

Comes with 4GB internal memory, 127 colored labels, 3 magnetic badges (great
for using on tins), neck lanyard and 2 AAA batteries. Also includes free
'PenFriend sticker management software' which works with JAWS screen reader
and free CreateLINK software to access sound enabled books, posters or maps.
You can also download MP3 files (books and music) from your computer using
the management software (USB cable required to connect device to computer -
not included). 1-Year Manufacturer's Limited Warranty.

To use, simply allocate one of the coded self-adhesive labels and record and
store your message on the PenFriend 2. To play back, hold the PenFriend 2
over the label - it announces recordings specific to each label. There is no
limit to the length of each message. Auto power-off after 3 minutes.
