Yes, I'd forgotten this information was already there and it really does
give a good explanation of features at least as a startingpoint.

Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Confusion about 7.2
In going up on the internet, this is what I found. It may not
give exactly the same insight as the audio tutorial, but it's
pretty concise.
Whats in KeySoft 7.2?
Working with Files Is Easier (available on all models)
KeySoft allows extensive manipulation of files from any file
list. Anywhere you can see a list of files, you can copy, erase,
move, protect, unprotect and rename a file. Now, it is possible
to mark files for action. Move through a list of files, mark
those files that you need to take action on, and the file
manipulation commands can be applied to the group of files.
Now, when you look through a file list using the Directory option
in File Manager, pressing ENTER on any file will launch its
associated application. Pressing ENTER on an mp3 file for example
will immediately cause it to start playing in the Media Player.
In any file list, it is now easier to get it sorted. You can
still sort files alphabetically as you have always done, however
you can now also sort by date and by size. Sorting by size is a
great way of finding those pesky large files that are consuming
FLASH Disk space. Sorting by date makes it easier to trace the
progress of a project whose files are contained in their own
folder.
e-mail Signatures (available on all models)
KeySoft 7.2 adds the ability to set up two e-mail
signatures. Configure an e-mail signature for messages you
generate, and another for messages you forward or reply to. You
can see the text of the signature right in the body of any e-mail
message you create.
Statistics Support in the Calculator (available on all models)
KeySoft 7.2 offers intuitive, powerful statistical functions in
KeyPlus. Create data sets within the Calculator using a special
data entry mode. Enter your data into a KeyWord document, and
paste it into data entry mode from the clipboard. Import data
sets from many common applications. Save data sets for later use,
and export them for use by other applications. Perform a wide
range of statistical functions on a data set using an intuitive
KeySoft menu, or with hotkeys.
DAISY Support (available on BrailleNote and VoiceNote mPower, and
BrailleNote PK)
Your BrailleNote or VoiceNote is about to become your digital
book player. HumanWare is the world leader in DAISY playback
technology, through our Victor Reader products. Now, we have
incorporated Victor Reader technology right into KeySoft. Listen
to DAISY audio books, with the flexibility to speed up and slow
down the narration and change the tone of the audio. Set
bookmarks, create text notes, and jump to any time in the
book. Text only DAISY books are instantly translated into your
preferred grade of Braille. With books that offer both text and
audio, you have the best of both worlds. Choose to read in
Braille for detailed study, and let the narrator read to you when
it suits. Move through DAISY elements, or use the familiar
KeySoft sentence and paragraph navigation commands in text DAISY
books if you prefer.
Get Ready!
Make sure you have a current Software Maintenance Agreement so
you can download your copy of KeySoft 7.2 when it is
released. KeySoft 7.2 from HumanWare will change the way you
work, learn and play.

Hi Jonathan,
Your comment is interesting. Two deaf-blind consumers recently
got the M-Power with the audio Cd-Rom. One called Humanware
and was not told about any alternative format.
(Frankly, it appears your gander is up, and I'm sorry to
hearit! By that I mean I am puzzled as to why you made the
comment implying I suggested discontinuing audio materials.
All we are asking is for equal access to information, which,
in this case, means information in alternative formats.)
Shalom
