  1. BRITISH WIRELESS FOR THE BLIND FUND

  2. WELCOME from The leading UK charity supplying radio equipment to registered blind and partially sighted people

  3. Sonata Internet Audio Player The Sonata Internet Audio Player plays or streams audio from the Internet without the need of a computer. In total the Sonata can access any Internet facing radio station (roughly 12,000), podcasts, Local Talking Newspapers, National Talking Newspapers and Magazines, Audio books, audio catalogues and specialist news programmes for the visually impaired.

  4. SONATA How is this new technology beneficial to Talking Newspapers?

  5. SONATA Sonata users (currently 600+ and growing) can access your TN without the need to send out a TAPE, CD OR MEMORY STICK

  6. Are you aware of these facts? • Millions of CD’s every year are thrown away or recycled • Although tapes are disappearing still many millions scrapped each year • USB sticks have now taken over from Floppy Disks

  7. More facts… • Every day billions of USB sticks are manufactured worldwide • All flash memory sticks have a limited lifespan of re-writes before failure • All this means more cost, more waste

  8. So why is BWBF’s way different? • no cost to buy CD’s or memory sticks • no special machines needed to write data or copy to multiple formats • no cost for postal packing

  9. What do TNs have to do? • Produce your recorded newspaper digitally • Upload your copy to either your own WEB space or use the free WEB space provided by BWBF • Use the special upload page to make access to your copy seamless and easy
