You are correct! The KNFBReader Mobile is just software. It will work on the Nokia N82 and or the
6620 Classic. Both of these phones will work with LoadStone-GPS and Wayfinder Access software. You
will need a screen reader for the phone. You have two choices. Talks from Nuance and MobileSpeak
from Code Factory. Both will give you a 30 day trial so you can see what one you like the best.

Hardware eventually fails, software eventually works.
No amount of bandwidth can fix poor design.
