[stylist] New Victor Stream

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

Ashley,

Thank you. I'm aware that the lay-out of the new Victor's are the same,
though newest version is suppose to be slimmer. I'm just curious about
the new features such as the WiFi. And I'm more interested in knowin why
Victor's have never come down in price to compete with products like
IPods and IPads that can be purchased for much less, or the same price
but a larger GB.

Hi,
although I don't have one, I heard humanware rep describe it on a
podcast. Yes, it works like the old one. In fact the keypad style
buttons are the 
same shape and distance apart still.
It has a different text to speech synthesizer and another big difference
is 
that you can charge it with other chargers other than its own and I
think it 
charges while hooked to the pc.
If you are at convention, you can see one hands on.

How much does it cost, does it work mostly like the old one?  It has wi
fi; how does that work?

I have one. Yes, pricey compared to what is coming for us with the
IDevices. I can show you at the next chapter meeting (hope you come).
(Better sound, more volume, Wi-Fi, gives the time and date, smaller in
size. A good unit.

Wondering if anyone has the newer model of the Victor. And if so, how do
you like it?

I've been curious for so long as to why the Victor's never come down in
price, but Apple products and other devices are either cheaper or the
same price but have bigger GB's or whichever one it is. I can't read
BARD books on my IPhone and IPod, though NLS is working on an app, so
hopefully soon we can, but I can read anything else along withdoing
other things like recording and Y-FY, and my phone was $100 and my Ipod
was $100. My Victor, which was bought 6 years ago, was $350, and I've
yet to see a Victor go below this price. Anyone know why?

Bridgit
