Hi Jenny and All, I am fortunate enough to be working and have both an mPower 32 cell BT model, as well as a BNPK with the 18 cell display. And, although I do use both, for portability purposes, I find myself mostly using my PK when going to and from work. For, it is just the right size for me to use on the bus, and the lighter weight makes it much easier to be carried around.
Now, I know you weren't asking about the PK, but an mPower QT model. But, my point here is that, in my opinion, as well as that of others, guess it kind of comes down to your budget and personal preference and maybe just what you get used to using. I have no problems using my 18 cell unit; and, in fact, when I do go back to using my mPower from time to time, then I kind of have to take a few minutes and adjust back to using the larger display. And, grin, had I started using the mPower before the PK, who knows what my thoughts may have been, although I really do love the portability of the PK. Good luck with your choice. I know I really do enjoy having both of my units. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joseph Lee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Braillenote List'" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, July 14, 2006 12:44 AM Subject: RE: [Braillenote] braillenote mpower q t Jenny, I personally have a BrailleNote mPower BT with 18 cell display. If you need to read something quickly, 18 is preferable. If you are going to read for pleasure or proofreading, then I would recommend 32. An advantage that 18 cell users have is that if you want it, you can upgrade from an 18 cell to 32 cell unit with the fraction of a cost of buying a new unit. Personally, 18 is fine for me. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jennifer dawson Sent: Thursday, July 13, 2006 5:12 AM To: bt list Subject: [Braillenote] braillenote mpower q t Hi Listers I'm thinking about buying a Braillenote QT 18 cell or 32 celll, next year. I don't want to read books in braille. But I do want to use it to proofread documents, such as minutes etc. I also want to use it for public speaking. Just to look at my notes, not read a whole presentation. So what I want to know is, how those of you who have braille displays, manage with either an 18 cell or a 32 cell. Thank you in anticipation.
