[nfbcs] Fwd: Victor Reader Stream

David,
Consider it done!!

To Support Consultant Recipiant;

I want to inquire about the potential availability of an Apple iOS Companion 
utility similar to the HumanWare Companion for PCs.
If you are not aware, the iOS devices are out-of-the-box accessible.  The 
pervasiveness ofiOS products in the Blind and Vision-Impaired community is 
extensive.  The reason is because of that specific reason.
Having your excellently developed, and well-reknown products additionally 
accessible with our iOS Devices would greatly allow further use of your 
products and potentially reach a greater consumership.

With all of the great work that is done by HumanWare on behalf of the blind 
& vision impaired community, would you not think that adding usability of 
your products to products we are already using be an additional advantage?

Please consider developing an iOS HumanWare Companion.

Respectfully,
Ian  C. Bray
Louisville, KY.

>>The Victor Reader Stream is one of the greatest tools for blind and 
>>visually impaired people. I use mine every day and would be lost without 
>>it. It is manufactured by Humanware. If you are a PC user they also have a 
>>program called Humanware Companion.
>>  When installed on your computer the program  sets up a special folder 
>> and where books, magazines, music, etc. download the information goes 
>> into that folder. When you plug your Victor stream into your computer and 
>> then run the companion program it quickly transfers
>>  the information to the correct  folders on your Victor  reader stream.
>>
>>  If you are an Apple user this program is not available. I have contacted 
>> Apple as well as Humanware and asked when an Apple version would become 
>> available. The people at Apple told me that they do not develop 
>> applications of this type and suggested I contact
>>  the manufacturer of the device. When I contacted Humanware  they told me 
>> that if there was enough interest in an Apple version they would develop 
>> one.
>>
>>  That is the reason for this message  is to ask all Victor reader stream 
>> users to contact humanware  and request an Apple version of Humanware 
>> companion. All you have to do is send an email to Humanware Customer 
>> Service, info at humanware.com
>>  in the body of the message ask them to develop a Mac version or Apple 
>> version of humanware companion.  It will be interesting to see if a large 
>> response will receive positive results.
