someone asked me, if batteries plus will do a BNS, will they also be familiar with a Braill Note? This person doesn't know the battery #, and can't get the fourth screw loose on the back. Would Batteries Plus even touch it? Anyone with experience? I was told by them that Humanware wanted almost $200 for the battery. I have no knowledge of anything but that I was told this and am looking to help this person. Any facts provided will be put to good use. Thanks
