Dear Terry,

Most of the errors I mentioned have to do with the electronic manual inside the 
BNMP.  I only have the one volume of braille and I noticed an error in it, too.

I have gotten so used to the onboard manual I don't need a paper braille manual.

>I am a little disappointed in the QT manual.  Below are my comments:

>1.  In the braille volume, email addresses and URLs aren't in computer braille 
>and they should always be written in computer braille.

>2.  No mention was made about copying an email address from the header of the 
>email into the address book.  All email programs I have used contain this

>3.  Some odd characters are appearing in the electronic manual.  When I place

>4.  When I read the manual using read with help, some of the words are chopped 
>off.  I've seen this in previous manuals, too.

>5.  nother Keymail feature I didn't find instructions about was how to change 
>the subject line in a message I'm replying to.  After some experimenting, I 
>figured out how to do it.

>6.  I couldn't find anything about the odd strap on the carrying case.  What 
>is the thick velcro strip used for and what is the tiny velcro patch used for?

>That's about all I can remember.
