Right Richard; As I said earlier, we don't know what they are going to do with the parts, but I trust Humanware. I believe that they might make some voice notes for others less off than us. I don't think they will just trash them. Until this thread started, you know, I did not even think about what was going to happen to the other parts of the unit. I was just so glad to get a chance to get a transplant. My display is fine so to me it is a new unit with my display and all new hardwardware and software. What more could I ask for for that price?

Right on, Paul. There is no perfect deal, there is no perfect anything. Humanware is giving people who can find the money and who have a Braillenote an opportunity to obtain the latest technology, and what they choose to do with the older cases and circuitry is not a thing I believe I'm going to lose any sleep over. If I had a Braillenote I would take advantage of this opportunity in a New York minute! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Henrichsen Sent: Wednesday, September 07, 2005 6:36 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: Re: [Braillenote] What's The Purpose of Transplanting? Cathy! Why do you feel you are buying a used MPower? Your message just doesn't make sense. The only thing used in the entire unit would be the braille display and that was used by you. It isn't as if you are getting one that someone selse had in their unit. Why would you want to sell and why do you think a buyer wouldn't know what they were getting? They would be getting an MPower that was transplanted with the older braille display. How difficult is it to figure that out<grin>? The only thing I can see so far is you are upset that lots of older circuit boards and cases will have nowhere to go. As I say, your message just doesn't make sense. People can get totally new hardware except for their braille display, and totally new software and functionality and all that for 2000 dollars instead of spending 6200 on a new one. If they did spend 6200, the only thing they would ge getting that was different is the newer braille display. Pretty good deal if you ask me! ___ 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 ___ 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
