Chris, You might also consider getting a thumb drive. I have the 80GB hard drive, which is wonderful for storing large quantities of stuff. But the thumb drive is tiny, but not so small that you'd be likely to havve trouble with it. Just small enough to fit in your pocket, and can hold quite a lot. Mine is a 1GB Sandisk. I am recommending this in addition to the larger hard drive, and thinking that it might be a better choice than the card. But then, I'm a person who believes in all the storage you can possibly get! I have lots of it, in many forms, and use them all!

Also, although we're not sure of the reason, you can't record directly on to this drive so it's only really good for storage. It's a great little drive. The small USB plug may be a little difficult for you to manage and, without seeing your dexterity problems first-hand, I can't say a "Yes" or "No" to that one, but you'll probably need to use two hands to do it. -- Carol [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Hallsworth" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, August 19, 2006 8:53 PM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Bigger SD Card Now Available > Thanks for the advice.
