Subject: international roaming

 

For those of you travelling to convention, you'll notice that just a couple
hundred yards across the Detroit River is Canada, our neighbor to the north
(or in this unusual case, our neighbor to the south).  Though you will need
a passport to cross the border, your cell phone doesn't.  Depending where
you are in the hotel, your cell phone (or data card) may give up on a weak
signal from your carrier and switch to the Rogers Communications cell signal
from Canada.  This constitutes international roaming and can be very
expensive.  Unless you have a contract that includes it, you might consider
contacting your provider to disable international roaming, if only for the
first couple of weeks of July.  I found AT&T to be very helpful in providing
assistance with my request.  To make it a bit easier for those interested,
here are contact numbers for the various carriers:

 

AT&T : 611 or 800-331-0500

Sprint : *2, press Talk or 888-211-4727

T-Mobile : 800-937-8997

Verizon : *611 or 800-922-0204

Virgin Mobile : 888-322-1122

 

Here's to no cell phone bill suprises, eh?  If you supervise anyone without
e-mail, please advise any of those attending convention.

 

Regards,

John

Dr. Smith,

I hope you are doing well--I look forward to seeing you at the National
Convention.  

Kevan Worley has asked me to coordinate a piece of the rally during this
year's March for Independence.  We are going to be highlighting some of the
work accomplished through our Imagination Fund grants--at the national and
local levels.  I wanted you to know that I have reached out to the family of
Boniface Womber from Ohio.  I have asked Boniface to participate in the
rally.  They are now making plans to be at the convention and I helped them
find a room at the Marriott--because I knew of someone here in Baltimore who
had one to give up.

I wanted you to know that Boniface would be at the convention with one or
more of his family members and that he likely will participate in the March
rally as one of our Junior Science Academy students.

Cheers,
Mark

Of course we missed you. I bet Connie the Cat did too.
You should probably giveher a lot of petting while you are on your break.
Do not bother to tell me you do not like her because I have a feeling that
wouldn't wash very well with her.
We had three people join the Chapter today making our Membership 20.
Who knows we could even get the Gavel Award real soon.
Watch out, Richard, you never know.

  Opportunities to learn about NFB-NEWSLINE? Online?s revolutionary new
features available during NFB?s National Convention in Detroit Michigan

NFB-NEWSLINE? is looking towards the future with 
new initiatives that make use of modern-age 
assistive technology and devices.  We have four 
new initiatives, NFB-NEWSLINE? In Your Pocket, 
Web News on Demand, Podable News, and KeyStream, 
and we want to share information about our new 
initiatives with national convention 
attendees.  To that end we have arranged for a 
suite to allow for hands-on demonstrations of our 
new features in addition to two tables in our 
exhibit hall.  Our suite will feature four 
computer stations so that you can gain a better 
understanding of, and first-hand experience with, 
our new initiatives.  We will have several 
open-house events in our suite to accommodate the 
time constraints of convention attendees, so 
please look through the NFB-NEWSLINE? schedule 
below to see which open-house sessions are a best 
fit with your own schedule.  You may feel free to 
drop in during any of the open-house sessions.

For those of you unfamiliar with our new 
initiatives, here?s a brief description of each 
to whet your appetite before you come visit us in 
our suite to fill up on these goodies:

Web News on Demand

Web News on Demand provides all of the features 
that subscribers enjoy with the traditional, 
phone-based service, including access to all of 
their favorite publications, the TV listings, and 
the Local Information Channel content.  With Web 
News on Demand subscribers can, for the first 
time ever, visit a secure, text-only Web site 
that offers the distinctive ability to view the 
entirety of any publication offered on the 
service.  Further, this ability affords a 
uniquely enhanced search capability as a reader 
can search for a term throughout the 
publication?s content.  A subscriber using Web 
News on Demand is able to send a full newspaper, 
a section of a newspaper, or a single article to 
his or her e-mail inbox, allowing for unrivaled 
and immediate access to a breaking news story.

NFB-NEWSLINE? In Your Pocket

With NFB-NEWSLINE? In Your Pocket, we've 
increased the flexibility and functionality of 
NFB-NEWSLINE? so that our subscribers can more 
easily and quickly get their news through a 
digital talking book player (such as the Victor 
Reader Stream, Icon, or Braille+).  NFB-NEWSLINE? 
In Your Pocket is a dynamic software application 
that a subscriber installs on his or her computer 
that, through an Internet connection, 
automatically downloads the publications of the 
subscriber?s choice to his or her portable 
digital talking book player (such as the Victor 
Reader Stream, the Icon, or the 
Braille+).  Through this revolutionary initiative 
subscribers can gain easy and immediate access to 
their favorite publications and enjoy the reading 
experience that is offered with a DAISY-reading device.



Podable News
Podable News provides publication content in an 
audio format so that subscribers can use an Ipod 
or other MP3-playing device to access their 
favorite newspapers and magazines.  Also, with 
Podable News, you now have the ability to create 
your own "paper."  If you like to read USA 
Today's sports coverage, but prefer the Wall 
Street Journal's technology reporting, and you 
never miss The New Yorker's Shouts and Murmurs 
column, you'll really appreciate NFB-NEWSLINE?'s 
innovative functionality using your MP3-playing device.

KeyStream
This initiative streams NFB-NEWSLINE? publication 
content over the Internet, allowing for the same 
usability and flexibility as the traditional, 
phone-based service, but is accessed with your 
computer.  KeyStream is quite easy to use, even 
for those with very little computer experience.

Dear Colleagues,

Are you a power user of the KnfbReader Mobile?  Are you attending the 
up-coming NFB National convention in Detroit?  Are you interested in 
earning a little extra spending money?

If your answers to these three questions were "yes" then I would like 
to talk with you.  As you may know, the NFB is a National distributor 
for the KnfbReader Mobile.  We will be operating the KnfbReader booth 
at the NFB convention.  I am looking for a few good Reader users to 
help demo on Saturday, July 4, and Sunday, July 5.  If you believe 
you can do the job please call me before Friday, June 26, 2009 at 
(415) 827-4084 so we can discuss how you might fit in.

I am also looking for some help from one or two persons who can help 
us with credit card processing.  For this job I will need people who 
can see and read a laptop computer screen.  If you or someone you 
know might be interested again please call me at (415) 827-4084.

Thank you for your help.  The KnfbReader Mobile is the most exciting 
product yet developed by the team of the NFB and Ray Kurzweil.  I 
appreciate your help in making Reader sales a great success in Detroit.


To your success,


Mike Hingson
