[Braillenote] Good news and bad news.

[James Aldrich]

Hello all,

I tried sending this last night but I'll modify it with the latest 
information.


A friend of mine just got his M-power through Rehab.  His ambicom card 
won't connect! It just says new visible network.  It may connect on 
occasion but it won't stay connected.  He since has reset his wireless 
router and his M-power connected.  When he phoned, he was listening to 
streaming audio.  That certainly was great news.  When things weren't 
working,  I told him to get a PCMCIA to compact flash adapter and try the 
network card in the side slot.  Otherwise, I told him he'd be better off 
with the Sandisk Wy Fi card Humanware recommends.  I then had him check the 
memo recorder and he is getting the wax paper sounding recording as 
well.  I said to him he needs to have his unit sent in immediately to have 
that problem repaired under warranty.  How sad! He has looked forward to 
getting his BN M-power and encountered two major problems right off the 
top! He might get the Ambicom card to work in the side slot with the proper 
adapter but the memo recorder has that board which needs to be replaced! I 
hope these problems can be taken care of quickly so he can get on with 
using his M-power.

Luckily, the Ambicom card decided to work but he'll need to decide what he 
wants to do about the memo recorder.  He had his unit up and running with a 
few simple instructions from me!  Maybe he'll join the list one day, who 
knows?
