Hi KC, the CD ROM contains audio in MP3, the BrailleNote user's Guide in
various forms, Microsoft ActiveSync, and KeySync.

[Braillenote] RE: Text Tutorials
Thank you Terry.
>From E-Mail I have received, there are others on the BN List who
seem to agree. However, until HW agrees we are out in left
field! At the same time, the CD-Rom, for the sake of
convenience, should be clearly marked "Audio," if that is all
it will be!

Hi Jonathan;
I think KC and other deaf blind users are looking for a text
version of
the tutorial. A lot can be learned from the tutorial and they
need
access to it too, even though it is in written format. An audio
tutorial is the best for learning, but since they can not use it,
you
need to give them the equivalent. You could put it on your site
and all
could use it.

Hi KC, it is completely unrealistic to expect us to stop
producing audio
material because Deaf Blind people can't access it. What it is
realistic
to expect is that we will make the same information available by
other
means that are accessible to Deaf Blind people, and this is
already
happening. So I'm at a loss to understand what precisely the
problem is.
We have no way of knowing when we ship a product that is all
boxed up,
whether the customer receiving it is Deaf Blind or not. So if the
audio
material isn't useful, it can be ignored. All the same
information is in
the User Guide on board the unit.

RE: [Braillenote] Confusion about 7.2
Hi Jonathan,
I don't mean to be difficult. However, I'm on a several
Listserves with folks who are deaf-blind. More than a few are Bn
users. Perhapsyou should be aware there is a general sense of
dismay at the fact HW offers a tutorial on CD rom that is
audio only. I mention this, because you indicate here that you
are mindful of the needs of consumers who are deaf-blind.
KC
