Demo of the KNFB Reader?

[Kevin Chao]

Saqib, 

The KNFB Reader Mobile is an application that will only run on the Nokia N82
at the moment. It is an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) program and
performs the same task as Kurzweil 1000, OpenBook and OmniPage. The
difference being the three mentioned programs are installed onto a PC and
require a scanner. This is different as compared to the KNFB Reader Mobile
where performance and functionality is almost matched and it will run on a
cell phone, so you have a reading machine in the palm of your hand.

Hi could someone explain to me on what a KNF reader is and what it does?
This topic has been discussed on the Access UK mailing list as well.
