International Braille and Technology Center for the Blind (IBTC), we are
constantly gathering information about Braille and speech technology. This list
is our way of sharing some of that information. It is advisable to purchase
extended warranties and/or maintenance agreements for this specialized
equipment. Most products are returned to a repair facility or the original
manufacturer for repair. When it becomes necessary to service the large Braille
embossers, a repair technician may need to come to your site. These repairs can
be very costly, making the cost of extended warranties and maintenance
agreements a good investment.</FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Greetings Members of TAD,<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The Technology Assistance Division website is coming along
nicely. I plan to have a list of external resource links on the site until I can
develop a database. Please share any and all technology related resources that
would be of value to fellow members. If you would provide me with the URL, I
would be most grateful. There will be other resources that we can use in the
database when it’s up and running that won’t necessarily need to have a web
address. For now, though, just the website and a brief description of the
services.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>We are about 6 weeks out until completion.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Many Thanks,<o:p></o:p></P>
