Hi Nicole, sure I am going to do that very soon now, I'm just about ready 
to talk about KeySoft 7.2. Maybe in another week's time or so.

Re: [Braillenote] a suggestion for a future release






Dear Jonothan,

    Thanks for the information.  Would it be possible to give us a quick 
run 
down of some of the features on which HW is working?  I understand if this 

is not possible.

Nicole
