<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello GRLUG members,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thought I'd give you all a heads-up. I've
already RSVP'd with Casey. I'm planning to bring with me an IPAQ
computer(Celeron 500 or P3-733 with 128meg ram), that we have configured to boot
off of CD running Geexbox Linux. The solution is designed to be as
hands-off as possible for use by those with vision impairments. The PC connects
over the internet to an audio stream provided by <A
href="http://www.thesightseer.org">http://www.thesightseer.org</A> an
organization that provides a reading service to the blind and physically
handicapped. It's a non-profit and runs soley on donations -- there are no
commericals in the broadcasts. They've been broadcasting on a side-channel
to fixed frequency radios in the past, but also now provide an audio stream on
the web. If you go to their web page and click on their icon it should
spawn a player for the stream.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Right now, the CDRom based solution works, but I
may need the group's help in making a hard drive based solution viable as well,
since CDRom drives for IPAQs are somewhat difficult to obtain, cost being the
most difficult hurdle. I can explain at the meeting what we know so far
and what we want to accomplish. The solution has been promoted to several
Lion's Clubs already so we're really excited to be making Linux an integral part
of the solution. :)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Looking forward to seeing you all
there!</FONT></DIV>
