Paul; What do you use to cover your internet and e-mail connection. I pay about $30 for phone coverage. I am trying to find out what I need to have access to internet and e-mail, when I change to an m power. I am trying to deside if I can handle it or if I just want to keep my e-mail at work. Money is the big question and who is the best provider? Thanks. Terry Powers

My wife and I went to visit her mom today in the mountains of Sonora, California. Needless to say, there was no dsl and I couldn't use my wife's cell phone to get my mail. I had to use the modem in the MPower. I was surprised when I was asked for my user ID and password. I thought I already had that set up in my email configuration. But after entering the appropriate information, I was even more surprised not to hear the modem connect and dial as it had in the bn classic. It did connect, but without any sound. The email then downloaded very quickly for a 56 k modem. It got those 131 mssages in no time without a pause or break. How great is that? I don't know why the modem doesn't make a sound any more, but it sure works well. Reading email while riding in the car home was a breeze except for the road bumps<grin>. I got through 246 messages in no time with the bn MPower only taking a second or two to deleete the message when pressing control 8. I can happily say that I no longer have a problem using or recommending that other people use their MPowers to get email. For those of you who haven't upgraded yet or haven't purchased an MPower yet, You won't be disappointed with the speed of downloading or deleting email. ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
