We were interested to read Disibility Review's recent assessment of the Intel Reader.

They found that the Intel Reader is:

“a seriously mainstream piece of kit. About the size of a book, or of other e-readers on the market, it looks and feels good.”

And:

“… it will read to you in a warm, very authentic sounding synthetic voice which is remarkably coherent and understandable even at the kind of high speeds which practised listeners can tolerate.”

They summarised their review by stating that:

“it’s possible to use the reader hand-held and on the fly to get remarkably accurate readings of things like letters, bills or that ever-handy pizza menu.”

So that’s a thumbs up from Disability Review – and a double pepperoni for us. You can read the article here. You can find out more on the Intel Reader here.
