Hi Myrna,

The suggestion I said I would log was going to take the form of an option 
somewhere in one of the menus.  I can't promise anything but at least it 
will be on record for all of the BrailleNote team in Research and 
Development to see.

Regards,

Hi Dean and List,

Dean, I agree with you about likeing to look around with the display
and leave the cursor where is is when editing a document.  However,
when in the book reader, I sure wish that the cursor would folow the
Braille display.  I have to constantly remember to either you the right
outer thumb key, or hit a routing button.  If I don't, and then exit
the book, I open the book, I'm not where I think I left off the last
time.  If the cursor followed the Braille display, all I would need to
do continuously is to simply press the Advance thumb key to keep going
forwared through the book.  So, would it be possible to have the option
so that we could choose to have the curor follow the Braille display, or 
not?
