Hello everyone,
I will address several posts in this message.  With regard to features for
those in the UK v. the U.S., the fact is that 7.5 must be released now or
before the end of August due to the fact that some major ISP's in the U.S.
are requiring Secured Socket Layer (SSL) encription for E-mail.  Without
this, many BN users who only use their unit, and not a PC, for E-mail would
not be able to get their E-mail using the BN after 8-31-07 due to this
requirement.  There is one Canadian ISP that I am aware of through this list
that is going to SSL encription as well.  I can bet that this is coming to
the UK and elsewhere as well.

With regard to the HTML issue, I would have to agree with Tom Langeon that
one.  This has been around for years and needs to be dealt with.

With regard to the Word issue, this is more complicated than many of you
might realize and more so than I understand;but the fact is that this is  a
microsoft issue and HW is working with Microsoft on this matter.  The
problem, as I understand it, is the changing document format for Word with
each version.  Anyone else who was at the ACB convention when this was
discussed can feel free to chime in on this issue.

With regard to issues related to the deaf-blind, it was announced at the ACB
convention by Richard Mander , CEO of Humanware, that there is work going on
with the university of Washington on a deaf-blind communicator.  As the work
is going on in Washington state, I have to believe that this is where it
will come out first.  In fact I believe that this was mentioned at
convention.  Mr. Mander spoke on Sunday night and the audio can be listened
to at the acb website.

Take care.
