I could see where they might, if they were using audio files for
example. And I think the advantages for a sighted teacher to use
a visual display, the USB ports and use with other storage media
as well as other advantages that were pointed out are all
worthwhile things to consider.

Do you honestly think a second grader will require vast amounts
of
storage space?

Hi:
There are several advantages.
1. More storage space on the Flash disk
2. USB ports, works w/ USB printers which most are, and also can
use
thumb drives to pass info to and from her BN to her teachers'
computers
3. Can use the Bluetooth visual display w/ a Bluetooth PC or a
Palm
Pilot so her teachers can see what she's doing.
4. Calculator now handles fractions, will be helpful in math
class.
5. The MPower will be where most of our major upgrades occur,
especially
sense it's the next generation of Mpowers, so basically, it will
be
improved upon a lot. It's a good investment, especially for when
she
hits middle school.
6. Also, her electronic text books can be read on the MPower
using voice
or the Braille display. If you have her as a member of book
share or of
NLS, she can download books and read using her MPower, will help
improve
her spelling BTW.

Can anyone tell me what the major advantages of an mPower over a
Braillenote BT32 would be for a 2nd grader?
Thanks!
