I've changed the subject to better fit the topic. Unfortunately, companies don't want to make hard copy manuals for the sighted. The onboard manuals cost less and the companies force all of us to be satisfied with that. HumanWare is just going along with the trend. So HumanWare is "with it."
I'm not saying I agree with the trend, but braille takes up so much space and it's so bulky. That's my motivation for getting used to reading braille with the BN. I can see why some people want hard copy and the print manual HumanWare sends is useless. If a person wants too, he or she could scan the manual and read it that way. The volume of braille they did give us doesn't contain enough information to put in your eye! Terri, Amateur Radio call sign KF6CA.

It probably would come with a price. I didn't order it, but I understand. Sometimes people think voice is the magical solution. Still, reading in braille, especially if you grew up with it is a different focus. It's intense to me. You should have your braille manual. Get with it Humanware. If you don't believe me, tell your people to use voice for a month. No print allowed. Maybe they'd then know why there should be braille manuals available. If talking doesn't work, experience is the best teacher. : : Brenda Mueller : : : ___ : 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 : : : __________ NOD32 1.1325 (20051215) Information __________ : : This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. : http://www.eset.com : :
