Ottawa Canada Dear Corey:
The pro's of the BrailleNote are: -it doesn't lose data from its flash disk even if the battery runs flat; Designed from the ground up for blind users and especially of Braille; Reasonably simple to operate and when you get to know the commands say for formatting text, pretty darn quick to use. Reasonable battery life. Can use SD, Cf and PC/MCIA cards. Support list full of friendly people who know what they are talking about generally, and selected Humanware staff participate regularly on the list. Disadvantages: Only uses two different wireless cards, one discontinued and the other scheduled to be discontinued in the foreseeable future. Closed system: You cannot add applications to it from most third parties. Uses only one brand of low power Ethernet card; Only works with certain printers and some it is supposed to work with only work by serial or Parallel port, not USB; Cannot be used as Braille Display for a PC using USB port, must use serial or blue tooth only. If you can live with the above limitations, then buy a BrailleNote Mpower! If you can't, go check out the features and limitations of the neighbours. Brian -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
