I can tell you that this is, without a doubt, *NOT* caused by a virus. I've seen the flash disk go bad on several BN/VN units, and it's one of those nasty computer things that just happens. The BrailleNote family is not subject to any of the standard viruses out there. The only virus that can attack a BN would be one designed to run under Windows CE. It seems people just aren't writing these viruses, so for now, the BN family is immune to viruses.

I've been up the same road and couldn't tell you WHY the Flash Disk took a hike! Not being a BN Nerd, like some of you guys, my guess is that it was a virus, sent, either via an e-Mail or during an Internet session. Which brings me to a question. Where is the Anti-Virus Program in the BN!
