Hi Linda,
You can purchase a bluetooth wireless keyboard to use with Trekker making it
easier to input information. It is a querty fold up keyboard and it folds
small enough to put in a shirt pocket so I am told. I thought that the pk
and Trekker were separate purchases. Am I mistaken? Please enlighten me
because I need to make an informed decision here. Thanks and have a great
day!
Virgie and Hoshi

Hi Virgie,
Please don't take this as pressure, but I just want to share. The Sendero
weighs less than a pound. It has the regular braille keyboard, and 'the
machine is smaller than the Braille N Speak. I know I am spending a lot
of money this year, but it is worth it. I am buying the Pk, which is the
small machine, the sendero goes with it. This way it will fit in my
purse. The Trekor I understand is also small, but when you write on it
you have to press each letter at a time, I think. Sounds like a backwards
braille slate. I always hated that braille slate, and never mastered it.
I was spoiled, went to public school, and always had a braille writer
since I was in kindergarten.
Anyway, that is why I asked you if you could send me the information on
all three devices. Maybe I am getjing mixed up.
Incidentally, my friend who got her dog from Smith Town, got the Trekor
for free because she is training the people at Smithtown to use the item.
Just two weeks ago she went there for training herself.

Hi Linda,
I am hearing good things about it as well. I haven't decided for sure but
I
think I am leaning more toward Trekker for ease of portability and less
weight. I hope you get to go to be trained this year too, let me know!

Hi Virgie,
Someone I highly respect told me that she thought the Sendero with the
Bk
was the best and most servicable. Michael Mae, a graduate of Seeing
Eye,
developed the Sendero and owns the company. I hope to be going this
year
as one of the people to the Seeing Eye to work with the Gps and the
Sendero. It is on the way as we speak.
