Hi! That's cool! As long as I get the answers I need. I'm going on-line this afternoon and see about getting an Sd card or two, if the price is right.

I understand that the SD card, "Secure Digital" is now a faster card, as far as downloading goes. They are certainly much smaller, and can hold a lot of information. > ----- Original Message ----- >From: "Jolena Foster" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected] >Date: Tue, 25 Apr 2006 10:40:35 -0500 >Subject: Re: [Braillenote] RE: Questions ] >Hi Martha: > This is Jolena Foster.
