Hi mark, this is something we haven't considered offering at present but
I'll certainly make a note of your interest in such an option.

> HumanWare will be releasing KeySoft 7 in mid-January 2006, and it's
> our biggest and best release ever!
> Whether you have a BrailleNote or VoiceNote mPower, a BrailleNote PK,
> or
a
> BrailleNote or VoiceNote Classic, there's a version of KeySoft 7 that
will
> be available for you. KeySoft 7 takes one count from your Software

> used for a version of KeySoft if they are purchased prior to the
> release of the software concerned. So if you are not yet an SMA
> holder, ensure you get the best deal on KeySoft 7 plus the next major
> release of KeySoft by purchasing your SMA now. What a great holiday
> present for you or that special BrailleNote user in your life.
> Note that the cost of KeySoft 7 on its own is exactly the same as the
cost
> of an SMA, so an SMA represents by far the best value for money.
>
>
> Contact HumanWare or your local dealer for KeySoft 7 pricing.
>
> Please note that KeySoft 7 will not run on the original BrailleNote,
> discontinued in 2002, that does not have a compact flash slot in the
> back of the unit. The latest version of KeySoft that runs on these
> units is 4.02.
> By
> BrailleNote Classic, we refer to the BrailleNotes and VoiceNotes prior
> to BrailleNote and VoiceNote mPower that have a compact flash slot in
> the back of the units. Original BrailleNote owners should contact
> Humanware about transplanting to BrailleNote mPower.
>
> What's in KeySoft 7?
>
> We promised that KeySoft 7 would be our best release ever, and as you
look
> at this extensive feature list, you can see we've packed in a wide
> range of features that will change the way you work, learn and play.
>
> Key Base, Available on All Models
>
> With KeyBase, you've got it sorted! This new application, available
> from KeySoft's Main Menu, is a powerful database manager allowing easy
creation
> of your own databases. KeyBase ships with many useful databases to
> assist you in cataloging your music collection, keeping track of home
> inventory, entering recipes, logging ham radio contacts and so much
> more. But the step by step wizard-style interface of KeyBase makes it
> a snap to create your own databases too. Simply tell KeyBase the names
> of your fields and the type of data you want to store in that field.
> Be specific right down to the kind of Braille you want to be entered
> into a field if you wish. Want to share your database with others?
> Then you can even customize the messages users read when they press
> the help key when entering data into each field.
>
> KeyBase allows easy importing and exporting to and from many
> applications including Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access and many
> on-line banking systems.
>
> KeyPlus Just Got Smarter with Fractions, Available on All Models
>
> Work with fractions in the updated KeyPlus Scientific Calculator. As
> well as performing standard mathematical operations, you can convert
> fractions to decimals and vice versa, convert fractions to and from
> percentages, convert a fraction to its lowest terms, and much more.
>
> Let the Games Begin, available on all models
>
> One of the most frequent questions asked of HumanWare about the
> BrailleNote family has always been, "can you play games on this?" Now,
> the answer is
a
> resounding yes, as interactive fiction comes to KeySoft. Interactive
> fiction, also known as text adventures, will take you into mysterious
> worlds where you can look at your environment, move around, collect
> objects,
talk
> to all kinds of strange creatures and sometimes find yourself trapped.
> There
> are hundreds of compatible interactive fiction games available for
> download on the Internet, ranging from educational titles for kids
> right through
to
> epic fantasy for the serious gamer, and you can play them right on
> your BrailleNote or VoiceNote.
> Easily switch in and out of games when you need to check e-mail or
> make a note, play music in the background while you solve the latest
> mystery, or save games for later resumption.
>
> Braille Input for JAWS for Windows, available on all models
>
> Window-eyes users have for some time been able to control their
> Windows
PC
> from their BrailleNote in Braille terminal mode. Now, that feature is
> available for JAWS for Windows users as well. Compose e-mail, write a
> Microsoft Word document or work with your spreadsheets on your PC, all
> from your BrailleNote's keyboard.
>
> More Configurable E-mail, available on all models
>
> Some Internet service providers are now using non-standard POP and
> SMTP server ports as an attempt to increase security. While most users
> will
not
> need to be concerned with this, those customers on Internet providers
> adopting this approach can now specify any port for both POP and SMTP
> traffic.
>
> More Bluetooth Support, available on BrailleNote and VoiceNote mPower,
and
> BrailleNote PK
>
> The integrated Bluetooth support in BrailleNote and VoiceNote mPower
> and BrailleNote PK just got even more useful! In KeySoft 7 you can,
>
> * Use your device as a remote synthesizer for your PC with no wires
> attached. Take your BrailleNote or VoiceNote mPower or BrailleNote PK
> up to 10 meters (30 feet) away from your PC and still hear what your
> screen reader is saying.
>
> * Use your device as a wireless Braille display. With BrailleNote
> mPower and PK operating as a wireless Braille display, coupled with
> the keyboard input functionality, you have complete control over your
> PC as far as 10 meters (30 feet) away from your PC. Take the
> BrailleNote outside on
> a
> sunny day and keep on working on your PC using the keyboard input
> functionality. Control a PowerPoint presentation in front of your
> audience, even when the PC is tucked away in an inconvenient place.
> The possibilities are limitless!
>
> * Drive a wireless visual display. Want to give a presentation using
> data on your BrailleNote? Are you a teacher who wants to be able to
> check
> a
> student's work with no wires or fuss? The extension of the visual
> display function to include Bluetooth makes all this possible. Use a
> range of devices for the visual display function including Palm Pilots
> and Windows HyperTerminal.
>
> Voice Recorder for BrailleNote PK
>
> The popular voice recorder for BrailleNote mPower arrives on
> BrailleNote PK in KeySoft 7. Just press the handy record button on the
> front of your BrailleNote PK, and make recordings using the built-in
> microphone.
>
> Eloquence Speech for BrailleNote and VoiceNote mPower
>
> HumanWare's BrailleNote and VoiceNote mPower becomes the first device
> of its kind to offer you a choice of speech synthesizer. Use the
> highly responsive and accurate KeyNote Gold speech that has been one
> of KeySoft's strongest features, or switch to the familiar Eloquence
> speech that is now widely available on access technology products.
> When Eloquence is active, you
may
> also choose to have hyperlinks voiced in a different Eloquence voice
> when using KeyWeb, making the web really come to life.
>
> Fm Radio for BrailleNote and VoiceNote mPower
>
> That's right, your BrailleNote or VoiceNote mPower is now an FM radio
too!
> Scan the FM band for your stations and save them as presets. Read the
> frequency on the Braille display or the station name if you've saved
> that information. Listen to the FM radio while you work on other tasks.
Control
> the volume of the FM radio separately from the volume of the speech.
> Even use the recorder to record FM radio stations.
>
> Don't Miss KeySoft 7
>
> We told you KeySoft 7 would be our most exciting release ever, and as
> you can see, we weren't kidding. Make sure you have a current Software
> maintenance Agreement so you can download your copy of KeySoft 7 in
> mid-January. KeySoft 7 from HumanWare will change the way you work,
> learn and play.
