You can also buy *puts a plug in here* games from Malinche
Entertaminment. I don't remember the cost for them, since I have
been given the games so far as presents or freebies, but you can go
here when you get the KS7 upgrade
http://www.malinche.net
I am going to email the man--I'm on his email list, I am sure of it--
and make sure he knows that blind people will be able to play his
games with their BrailleNotes. It'll look good for hin, and besides,
they *really are good
!*
