Mary ellen; Write me directly and tell me about the scan R. Can it be used directly with the braillenote if you do not have a computer. Does it have its own means of storing data or would I need a laptop. [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have open book at work. Not very good at it, need a little refresher. Looking for something for home use.

The ScanAr is an A++++++++++ all the way down the line. It is self contained, therefore no drivers to go into the computer, no cables to plug in except the one going into the electrical socket. The large hard drive allows storage of loads of documents. I have had mine a year and a half now and have my bills in it from June, 2003. I can look up records at the touch of a button. An example? I had to get the telephone number of my Insurance agent on Tuesday, so rather than search in Dirrectory Assistance, I simply looked up my renewel cirtificate for 2004 in the ScanAr and voila! There was his phone number. Not many menus to go through. If you know how to operate a cassette recorder you know how to operate the ScanAr. I don't talk much about it because it just is always there always ready to read 24/7 and no excuses of "I'm too tired! or "Not tonight." Also there is no snow ice or hurricanes to stop my wonderful readers of Mike Reed Jenny and the whole gang of them. And ... Oh yes! If you ever want to read something in Braille? Well plug your serial cable into ScanAr and into your Braille Note and ScanAr will ask you when you save that document if you wouldn't like to save to Braille Note. Tell it yes and you're good to go.
