The only solution I've found for sending hopefully normal messages with my BrailleNote BT is to do a spell check, because I tend to get extra dots into the middle of words, which often cause some interesting translation problems. <grin> I would imagine a spell check would catch weirdly spaced words too. It's still annoying that it happens, and I hope they find a fix for it, but the spell check might be a work-around, and I'm getting pretty speedy with it. <grin>

Oh, thank you, Sarah. That explains everything. NOT. And it did it again at the bottom of my message griping about it doing it. Do we have to count characters and not overflow more than 3 letters or it'll just split the word randomly at the first two letters? What's the pattern? What's the cause? And more to the point, what's the solution?

>What is with this sm oothly? What's the deal, have they got don't hyphenate turned on so it just splits a word wherever it likes when it shoves in a soft line break! I've never had so blasted much trouble just getting a message written. As Ann will attest, I have a hard time typing, I don't spell worth beans, and for friendly lists like this one I don't bother with spell checking and all that. But it must take me tripple the time to write a message on the voicenote just to get words to come out instead of jibberish, and now it's feeling free to toss in spaces wherever it likes! Ann tell them! I know where to put my blanks. I have trouble with letters and punctuation even sometimes, but I can get the blanks right. What kind of deal is this that voicenote is tossing in the pause that refreshes at random? It's like putting messages from the old note takers into the old word perfect then having to go through and take out all the soft returns so it didn't look stupid. Only at lea
