Hi Terry: After a discussion has passed, I don't remember what brought up the subject. No one wants anyone to get rid of Braille; To the contrary. Because radiation is making me go deaf, I couldn't make it without a Braille display. I believe the gist of our messages was in translation. Some people believe the BrailleNote should always translate without anyone proofreading. I'm saying, along with a couple of others, that it isn't possible. I'm glad you enjoy your Perkins Style Keyboard.
