Hi Barry

Yes, I heard a piece on Radio Ulster about this over breakfast this morning.
What they didn't mention was the cost involved, both to GDBA in partnering
it, and the user.  It sounded interesting though I have to say. 


Kind regards,

Jackie Brown

It's a shame it only works with the Windows mobile, but this looks pretty
good otherwise.

A headset that guides visually impaired people around cities has been
developed by Microsoft and charity Guide Dogs.
