Handy Tech North America is pleased to announce the most significant price
reduction of the world's most portable, and now most affordable camera
based image capture and read technology.
Effective immediately, and just in time for the holidays, customers will
enjoy a $600.00 price reduction in the K Reader and K-NFB Reader Mobile
software Products.
Just released in January of 2008, both the K-Reader and K-NFB Reader Mobile
software were priced at $1,595.00. The new price is $995.00.
We at Handy Tech North America both applaud and appreciate this incredible
development because it places this awesome technology well within the grasp
of consumers who simply couldn't afford it before. We understand that for
some, $1,495.00 the new cost of the K-Reader and K-NFB Reader with Nokia N82
Mobile bundle, may as well be a million dollars because some people don't
have that either, but considering that only 2 years ago the original reader
cost $3500.00 is amazing! I would challenge those who would argue that the
cost is still too high, to name another product in the assistive technology
industry that has come down in price by $2000 over a two year period, I
can't think of one myself at the moment.
Here is the new price breakdown:
K-NFB Reader Software only: $995.00
- for people who already own a supported phone such as the N82 and would
like to install the software themselves.
Nokia N82 and K-NFB Reader installed and configured: $1,495.00
- for people who have no immediate desire to access the features of the
phone, but want a portable and reliable means of accessing print materials.
Nokia N82, K-NFB Reader and choice of Mobile Speak or Talks screen reader
installed and configured: $1,795.00
- for people who want access to print materials and wish to access the
features of the phone such as messaging, contacts, calendar appointments and
much more.
Nokia N-82, K-NFB Reader, choice of either Talks or Mobile Speak screen
reader, Way Finder Access GPS navigation software with GPS receiver
installed and configured: $2,295.00
- for people who want to add GPS navigation to an accessible phone and the
world's most portable means of accessing printed materials.
The above pricing is subject to change without notice.

Wow, this is amazing news!
Now, can a person have the phone the knfb reader and mobile speak, without a cell phone contract? My guess is no, but I thought I'd ask.
Wow, I already have the phone, and, if I had an extra grand i'd certainly think of buying this particular product.
yes, you can use the phone with out a contract. Some people like me plann to use the phone for scanning untill I can aford to get talks on it. I might even just use the phone for scanning and still use my old 6682 for phone calls.
btw, amazon sells the n82 for 349.
Indeed as Sean mentioned above, it is possible to use this device without any contract. In fact, I do all the time as I primarily use the one device for testing and another for my primary handset.
If anyone has any questions, please do not hesitate to give me a call at: 651-636-5184 X3. Or you can feel free to shoot me an email at:

I don't check these boards regularly, so contacting me via the information above is probably the best way to get ahold of me.
