Hey all,
I have a thought, why not make the bn compatible with most cards
so we're not stuck with this situation?
To have this device work with only 2 or 3 cards seems to me a
little ridiculous.
It should work with most any card. That way, we won't be stuck
just because a couple of cards are going obsolete.

KC,
I thought that I would like to confirm that of what you are
saying KC, since
I am the one who brought this discussion up. That is correct
that both the
SanDisk and Ambicom manufactures are planning on discontinuing
the wireless
cards that were once known to be compatible with the BrailleNote
family of
products. I believe that SanDisk has already discontinue the
wireless card
that they manufacture, and Ambicom is planning on doing the same
in the near
future. This does not mean that all current owners of the
SanDisk or the
Ambicom will not be able to use their cards once they are
discontinued, the
current owners will still be able to use their wireless cards,
but once
there are failures in the wireless cards, it will be virtually
impossible to
get replacements nor to get them fix, once they are all
discontinued that
is. This will be troublesome for new BrailleNote users, as they
will not be
able to purchase the SanDisk wireless card, and will not be able
to purchase
the Ambicom wireless card once it is discontinued, they will be
left without
the ability to use the wireless feature on their BrailleNote,
this will
remain the case until HumanWare finds an alternative wireless
card that will
work with the BrailleNote family of products. I just thought
that I would
clarify for those of us who are confused of the situation. I do
hope now
that we are all on the same page.
Kevin
