Tried for quite a while to find this optional pouch on the HUmanware site. Can anybody point me to it?

The velcro on the sides and rear of the braille note case is for an attachable pouch that was typically used to store the serial gps receiver's battery pack and access cable. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Graham Lewis Sent: Thursday, February 16, 2006 5:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Braillenote] Some feedback on the VoiceNote mPower I thought I would feed back on this as one of the few things I am completely happy with about the mPower VoiceNote is the shape and feel of the device. It has a really solod and robust feel about it. The Keybpard is comfortable to use and the ports are all easy to get at and connect to. The carry case is also top notch although with all the bits and bbs I carry around with it, I need an exttra bag. Is there a purpose for the velcro strips on the tio and sides? Are there additional pockets I can add or is this just a tactice q? Anyway, great d4esign on the hardware. Because I am not a brailler, smaller would not help me as I would need a qwerty keyborad anyway. The battery life isgreat if you just used the stripped unt but when the use it as it is meant to be used in ither words as an mPower, its battery life is far too short. I am not sure what can be dine about that besides have replacable battery pods as I have suggested previously. I work around this as I imagone most others do by keeping th charger on hand at all times. I have managed to get ActiveSync connectivity going with my work PC although I I actually don't use ot much yet, preferng to just copy files into a compact flash card or my portable external hard drive. That works well for me and it is great that we have so many options for getting files on and off the devoce. I have used the wireless connectivity at work and after sone teething problems got it working. There problem there is more with me being not yet used to using the web entirely by audio. I would like to be able to open html files on the devoce itself which does not seem to be possible as it is with internet explorer or any other web browser I have used. Having a home page as a local file on my PC gets me around a lot of the accessibility problems on a lot of web sites that I visit regularly. Bluetooth does not seem to work at all and I get the impression that nobody else is having any luck either. That is a shame as this was a bog selling point for me but I have abandoned that for now. Infra red I have not yet tried. Imight look into that of bluetooth continues to be a disaster so I can print more easily. I have mentioned before that I have issues with the design of the software interface. The application centred approach does not come naturally to me although I am becoming accustomed to it. I would still prefere the document centred approach that sighted users enjoy. The applications themselves work fine although the keybase application is disapointingly limited. Havign an extra voice was a good step but I would like to see an easier to listen to voice like double talk for listening to long documents like novels. It would be noce of the volume went a bit higher for when I am on noisy environments or when I have the unit playing music through the speaker although I have used a portable external speaker from TDK with some success there. Any way thats all from me for now. Back to what I get paid for.
