Brian and List,

This may be a dumb question, but what exactly is a punched card? I'm seventeen years old. Did these come before my time? Or am I just being ignorant? smile. Thanks.

Subject: [Braillenote] Getting Remaining CF or SD Capacity


Ottawa Canada

I've read the entire Braille Note Mpower QT manual, and I don't
recall it mentioning a way of getting how much space is free on
your card directly.

I suppose if you do a directory of all files and manually add up
the displayed file sizes and were to subtract this sum from the
size of the card you would get either a good approximation or an
exact amount of available storage.

If you have a PC with a card reader, I guess you could do a
directory on it with Windows and get the sum of file usage and
the free space.

Guess it pays to buy big storage cards.

I have a 1 GB SD card and was trying to figure out how many
cartons of punched cards it would take to hold the same amount of
data.

I think it is something incredible like a thousand cartons of
punch cards, each carton holding ten thousand cards to hold what
a little SD card that I could lose in my pocket if I'm not
careful can hold.

That is one very big saving of space!

Brian
