Hi,
When I looked at the Braille Mate for the first and only time, I told Alan
Holst that I thought it was the stupidest product I had ever seen. I ws
reacting primarily to the one-cell display. The next year Alan was working
for Blazie. I reminded him that we had met. He remembered only after I
reminded him of my comment. He had a few things to say then that he dared
not say the year before. I had owned a VErsa Braille 2 plus and had a
Braille Lite by then.

I have a braille mate that was dumped on me by my first computer teacher.
The man who tried to teach me was hard to work with and we found errors in
the manual. I finally gave it up. If I was sure it was mine, I sure would
like to sell it. I love my BT. I at least can understand how it works. If
it were not for the Humanware family I most likely would not have succeeded
on the BT.

Yes, I absolutely loved my Braillemate. I sincerely wish I could get it to
work even now even though I couldn't read the braille any more. I loved the
macro ability it had and the intuitive approach to things. It was great in
my opinion.
And actually if I could get that one little cell here on my Voicenote I'd be
thrilled.It would allow me to check the things I cannot hear without
spending such a large amount on a bunch of cells I really can't make use of
effectively. In fact, I was fantacizing the other day about a Braille Cell
that would plug in and stick on the velcro which was large print Braille so
I could feel it...kind of like those one cell keychains they sell for
fidgeting and practicing the braille alphabet. Anyhgow, I could connect it
to the velcro and it would act as secondary display for my voicenote or
computer or whatever I was not hearing well enough. Yeah I know there are
all those little braille displays to do just this, but they are really
expensive,when you read your Braille dot by dot. And in the dot by dot case
one cell is just dandy. Jonathan, does this fall into the area of not enough
of a market to consider?
