I couldn't agree more. What is so fun is to be standing at a counter where 
there is a stack of brochures and you just reach over turn the knfb reader 
program on on your phone and start to read the brochure. Hay that's what 
sighties do.
They just read what's in front of them so why not us?
Its also marvelous to know in a pinch when you don't trust a cab driver's 
motives that you _can take your phone out call up the gps and at least be able 
to give him a route to where you are going.

  Brett,
  This drifts a bit off topic, but I thought the same before I was able to own 
one and use it for awhile.
  Having a reading device in your pocket certainly comes in handy, depending on 
your profession, travels, and other activities. And having a device with GPS, a 
reading machine, and a phone all in one is just awesome.

    Why, they have Way Finder access, so the development time to port Mobile 
Geo probably wouldn't be worth it. I think it will only be a matter of time 
before we in see something similar on Windows smartphones. Besides that, while 
the KNFB reader is definitely a good idea, I personally feel that it's 
practicality cannot be justified by it's cost.

    Cheers,
    Brett.

      I am disappointed that the Mobile Geo product is not going to be 
available for the Symbian 3 platform of phones which the KNFB mobile reader is 
currently on.
