Oh, gee, it's been a bit since I've thought a lot about the differences between the mPower and the classic. But, I'll give it a try.
The mPower would do things much faster--download email and open files and the like. The mPower has USB ports, both for using ActiveSync with say your laptop, as well as for hooking up certain USB hard drives and thumb drives. The mPower has built in Bluetooth for ActiveSync or using your BN as a speech synthesizer for your computer or for using your BN to control your computer or for using your cell phone as a modem for retrieving email or browsing the web. The mPower also supports streaming audio from the net. And, oh, yes, it has a larger flash disk. Also, there are the expanded features to the media player as well, such as the voice memos and the FM radio. Oh, and for a high school student, the statistics and fractions advancements to the calculator could be important as well, as well as could be the database functions. As for the cost of the transplant, I'm thinking it was $1,995 originally; however, I'm betting that, seeing as they transplant into the currently shipping model, that you will have to pay close to four hundred dollars more to upgrade to KeySoft 7.2. However, seeing as I myself didn't do a transplant, someone can sure feel free to correct me if I'm incorrect. ----- Original Message ----- From: "david" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, October 01, 2006 11:06 PM Subject: [Braillenote] mpower info Ok. here's the thing. I need some good advice here. I'm in the ninth grade, and I have a braille note classic running ks 6.11 using an 18 cell braille display with the rubber buttons. I also have a dell laptop running jfw 7 on it. So what i want to know, what would be the benefits of upgrading to the mpower? By the way, I turn my work in to my teacher using compact flash cards and when the school gets wireless in more places, I will be using email. Oh, and How much is the transplant for an 18 cell braille display? ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
