I would suggest calling humanware service and report the unit as a stolen item. Perhaps they can flag the serial number in their database in the event someone sends it in for service or whatever. Of course also make sure to fill out a police report at the very least for credit and identity theft concerns with regards to the lost wallet. -Rob -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sarai Sent: Wednesday, October 26, 2005 8:34 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Suggestion
I was shocked when I heard about this. I mean I was a little lacks at church with my BrailleNote leaving it on my chair to save my place, but I'd always gard it at conventions for the blind. I mean, a sighted person can't even sell the parts!
