However, even though using braille one may be as you say, only a minor inconvenience, I don't think I'm amiss when I bring this translation problem to Humanware's attention. Al, all features that are offered with these devices should work properly, that's what you paid for. Whenever anyone asks me why I would recommend the brailleNote, one of its biggest selling points, in my opinion, is the things offered in the Information List you can find by pressing I chord from the main menu. ac to that list, among the BrailleNote's many great features (and I assume a promise from the manufacturer that it will work correctly) is: Translation (c) Copyright 1975 to 200, Duxbury System, Inc. X's worked pretty good up to this point, so I don't feel that I should have to revert to braille one now when taking notes, corresponding with friends or business associates, doing my school work, or writing to this list. Therefore, I feel a patch should be created as soon as humanly possible for those of us who enjoy writing in braille two and reading it with our fingers. B, if you are enamored with braille one, I won't stand in your way, please use it and you don't need my permission to do so.
