Just came across this website: pamtrad.co.uk/latest/izoom-launched

The price for the iZoom is very good, almost too good to be true! has anyone purchased this? I'm very tempted to get it for my step father...

Thanks in advance.

I'd of thought a good place to try would be the blind institute on mappin street just off West street. I know they've got a shop in the building that sells stuff and would of thought they'd have info on products they don't stock and be able to offer advice.

Hi All,

MrMoran, if jinxy11 is a spammer they're not acting on our behalf.
If I can help I'd be happy to.

iZoom really is £250 on a CD or £300 on a USB stick which you can plug into any Windows PC and it will just pop up.

The reason it is so much cheaper than similar software is because we are an independent company on the side of people with visual impairment, not out to make huge profits.

The best way to try iZoom to see if it helps is to download the 30 demo. It's a fully functional version so you can try everything out.

Its available at getizoom.co.uk (sorry I can't link as I'm new here)

Hope this helps.

Alex.
