Hi Jim! Point well taken, and I don't think I could have articulated it
better myself. This is a wonderful machine, and I think sometimes we need
to step back a bit and be a little grateful for that which we already
have. I mean, it sure could be allot worse couldn't it? Way to go Jim,
and I just wanted you to know that I fully agree with all that you had to
say on the subject. Personally, I love my m power, and there hasn't been
one day that I regret making the purchase I did. Isaih

Subject: Re: [Braillenote] 7.2 patch? When?
David and list,
Excuse me for saying so but how ridiculous a message like yours
below is!
You don't have to wait for anything to enjoy all the great things
the
M-power and other members of the braillenote family of products
offers to
the user! I have more problems keeping my Outlook Express under
control!
Quite often what I thought I wrote at the bottom of a post ends
up at the
beginning of my post. I suddenly noticed that my messages were
suddenly
sorting in alphabetical order rather than reading in random as
they came
in. I almost had a fit over that! My wife found someone who
told me how to
fix the problem! The casual reader of posts to this list tends
to think
everyone is having all these problems which are mentioned on this
list!
This is far from the truth! If you are looking for a perfect
problem free
computer product, you will be looking a long time, such does not
exist
anywhere! I certainly acknowledge people have had problems with
the battery
charge, joy stick not functioning, and other little picky things
which may
or may not be quite right! I think too some people are out there
just
looking for problems where none may exist at all! I think
everybody would
abandon the PC if all the uproar took place between outlook
express, the
mouse and one's speech program as it often does about the BN
family of
products we hear about on this list. If I were to define a
problem, it
would be an occurrence which prevents me from operating my
M-power or
accessing files and folders as I should be able to do normally!
A lockup is
a good example as such a problem! Losing one's files or not
being able to
access them on a storage card is another big problem in my
judgment.
Perhaps I might add anything which prevents me from accomplishing
my work
efficiently! I'd say most anything else is simply an annoyance!
Okay, I
plug in my M-power to charge the battery. The gage shows 97
percent after
two hours of charge! This happens often! What is the solution?
Unplug the
charger from the BN and plug it in again! Wait a few more
minutes to an
hour and the gage says a hundred percent after I unplug my unit!
This may
be annoying at times but it solves the problem! Big deal! One
of the three
resets usually solves a host of problems! I do agree if one does
any of
these resets including the service reset and their unit doesn't
function
properly if at all, then that person no doubt has a problem which
needs
attention from Humanware Service. Connecting to a wireless
network was
challenging for me at first, but once I figured out how to do so,
I have had
no trouble utilizing my wireless network here at home as well as
a few
networks on the road. Perhaps if more of us could tell potential
users of
the M-power what is right with it, I think people would see a
much different
picture of the BN. Believe me, there is a lot right with it! I
do agree it
is not without problems or should I say annoyances but then no
computer I
have ever used doesn't have some kind of problem. Can't we
lighten up a bit
and help new users who truly don't know what to expect! Some
answers are
indeed simple! Others are more complex I agree! I have used a
BN product
since October of 2001. Some of what has been discussed occurred
when the BN
first came out or when I obtained one. In this time of six
years, the BN
now the M-power has greatly improved its usability! It is a much
more
functional machine now than it was when I first purchased one. I
agree! It
isn't perfect but it is truly a simple to use, functional,
relatively
trouble free machine, at least, it has been for me! I think we
could keep
the traffic to a minimum if we could determine what is truly
problematic
rather than what isn't so troubling! I think I have had fewer
problems with
Keymail than I'm having with Outlook Express! When Outlook
functions
properly, it is faster, but when things mess up, what a pain it
can be! I
like Keymail for the most part!
I'll stay by my statement that there is more right with the BN
than what is
wrong with it whether one is using seven point two or not.

Subject: [Braillenote] 7.2 patch? When?
This especially goes to HW dchvs out there. When will there but
a ks 7.2
patch? I am so close to getting an mpower, but I'm just
wondering when a
patch for all these annoying bugs might be available.
Thanks
