Kia ora Mosen at Largers. Recently, it was a pleasure to sit down virtually with the legend that is Larry Skutchan to talk about all that APH has been working on lately. The Mantis, their new Braille display with a qwerty keyboard is creating quite a buzz, and we'll be discussing it in-depth. We'll also talk Studio Recorder, Nearby Explorer Online, learning to code and learning to type, crossword puzzles and more. This was one of the last interviews recorded with Larry in an APH capacity, as he retired from the organisation on 31 August. I'm sure you will join me in thanking Larry for his incredible contribution to the lives of blind people throughout the world. We hope to hear him regularly as a Mosen At Large contributor.

This week we present a Main Menu exclusive! Larry Skutchan of The American Printing House for the Blind discusses and demonstrates some features of Book Port Plus, a new product from APH due for release some time in March. Larry talks about the philosophy behind the design of the product, giving us a glimpse into the decision-making process. He talks about why some features are present in the unit, why some features are not yet present, and what we can expect to see in subsequent updates to the product. Why did APH choose Vocalizer as the text to speech engine of choice? Why not Eloquence? Is there a possibility that another text-to-speech engine might be used in the future? What does APH plan to do with the wireless capabilities of the unit? Could we actually be able to listen to Internet radio from a Book Port Plus? How does one navigate menus and change settings on the unit? There is no way to provide a tutorial on how to use Book Port Plus in just 53 minutes, but I think Main Menu listeners will find Larry's examples and insights most fascinating. Main Menu airs on Saturdays at 1:00 UTC; that’s Fridays at 8:00 Eastern time in the U.S. Subscribe to the Main Menu podcast feed at: http://mainmenu.acbradio.org/rss.php Follow Main Menu on Twitter by visiting www.twitter.com/mainmenu
