the DS50 is at:

Hi Jackie:
As Steve has said, the clock setting is difficult on the machine.
However, it can be done, but as Steve says, using the software makes
it
easier.

The screen cannot be read, but this is only a very minor aspect.

I can't find the URL, but Michael Lang has published a very excellent
rough
guide on the web.

Hi David

Another question then.  What are the inaccessible bits from a
non-visual
perspective please?  Sorry if this has been covered before.  But it's
like
everything else.  When you don't need to know it passes you by!!
(smile.)

Many thanks.

Jackie

Hi:

The DS-50 is purely the model with more memory as reflected in the
number
of
available hours of recording.
I have had mine for almost three months and wish I had bought in
January
when it was released, and that it was available decades ago!!!
Some limitations from a V.I. point of view, but a fantastic piece of
kit.

Cheaper from other sources.
I bought mine from purely gadgets who are on line.

David

Subject: [access-uk] Olympus DS50 question

Hi All

Could someone please clarify my confusion between the DS50 and any
of the
Olympus units RNIB are selling?  Is the DS50 the same as what they
are
selling under different model numbers, or is it a different animal
altogether?  I know that the three devices RNIB advertise only
appear to
differ in the amount of hours you have for recording and, of course,
the
price (smile).  But I've heard mention of the Olympus DS50 on this
list
quite often, and wonder if it is the same machine.

Many thanks everyone.  Oh, and for the more observant among you, no!
my
computer clock isn't wrong.  It is a little after 4.30 am as I write
this.
I'm an early bird (smiles).

Jackie
