I find the 2 USB host ports to be the mopst useful method of file transfer
and file management for me. My prior notetaker used serial transfer and this
USB functionality makes a world of difference.

However, then you would be taking dial up access away from individuals
throughout the world who don't have access to high speed internet.

I wasn't really in favor of removing the parallel port in the first
place.
Granted, the USB ports are great, I really like the fact that I can use
my
USB drive, but I think something else should have been removed rather
than
the parallel port to make room for the USB ports. I would have probably
removed the built in modem or the cf slot in the back, especially since
you
can use cf cards with a pc card adapter.

Subject: [Braillenote] I can't emboss with my Mpower
Dear List,
I bought an infrared to parallel converter from Enabling Technologies
so I
could emboss with my MP. The converter only cost $62.00 plus $10.00
shipping. I was able to emboss with it using Keysoft 6.2, but with
Keysoft
7, I can't emboss most of the time.
Tech support says many of the drivers were changed in Keysoft 7 and I
was
advised to buy a Bluetake which would cost me approximately $120.00
more.
This is unacceptable. First Humanware decides to do away with the
parallel
port and their advice is to buy one of those expensive Edgeports.
Then,
they ruin the drivers so I can't emboss with my infrared to parallel
device
and they want me to shell out more money to buy the Bluetake.
I think Humanware should come out with a version of Keysoft which has
the
drivers so my infrared to parallel device will work. Why should I
have to
shell out more money? People should be able to emboss with the MP
without
having to shell out gobs of money. If I had known Keysoft 7 would
ruin my
embossing capability, I might not have upgraded. As it is, it cost me
over
$300.00 to upgrade and they suggest I drop another $120.00 in their
hands?
No way!
Do others on this list feel as strongly as I do about this issue?
