I'll add my vote for trivia games. I do have a question, while we're on the subject. There have been a few posts recently that seem to say that the games are, like the media center and the FM radio, something a deaf person, or one who uses only Braille, can't work with. I would like anyone's opinion as to why this may be. The games seem absolutely accessible in Braille as far as I have been able to tell, but I am very interested in anyone's thoughts on the subject. No, the games are not a communication tool, and therefore aren't useful or desirable by all, but are they inaccessible for someone who doesn't use speech?
Thanks for any thoughts, and I hope no one thinks me insensitive for asking this. The only reason I haven't chimed in about the need for a communication application for the deaf-blind on the BN is that there is a vast amount of traffic already devoted to that topic, but I'll cast my official vote now for a TTY as well. BTW, it's T T Y, which speech insists on pronouncing TIE. <Smiles> Sarah C -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Richard Ring Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2006 10:51 AM To: Braillenote List Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Trivia Games Couldn't agree more.

Now I'm really opening myself for some slack here, considering what I just said about the games on the BN, but I was wondering if it would be possible for HumanWare to adapt or develop some trivia games for the BN. I would much prefer them to the adventure games and would be happy for them to be an extra in the way that the GPS or multi-lingual software is. Or, I could imagine there being a choice at download time about what kind of games one would like on the new upgrade. Anyway, Trivial pursuit is my most favourite game in the world and I love watching trivia shows so any trivia games would be great and I'd much prefer to play them using my BN than sitting at my desktop.
