Tom, that is a very good idea. Hopefully an electronic dictionary will be
available soon.

Hi,

Yes, often times when I encounter the need for a dictionary I am in class
and do not have access to an Internet connection. I do appreciate all of
the online resources when I am connected though.
I like the idea of a dictionary being available on the Braille Note or
Voice Note. It seems to me, though, that Humanware wouldn't really need
to develop a specific program for that purpose. All you'd need is a
dictionary available in book form that you could access through Book
reader, then use the Find command to locate the desired word, assuming of
course, that you know how to spell it. If Web Braille, Bookshare or some
other service could make a complete and current dictionary available, that
would be great. Somebody gave me a Random House dictionary with a number
of volumes in .brf format, but I don't think it's complete, otherwise I'd
give it to whoever wants it.
Tom
