Kristen, there's no point having Braille Terminal on a VoiceNote as, well,
there's no Braille display to interact with! So I think what you mean is
that you'd like the keyboard emulation feature, found in Braille Terminal
for BrailleNote users, to be included in Remote Synthesizer, correct? If
not, then I'm willing to stand corrected <smiles>. Thanks in advance.

Subject: RE: [Braillenote] foreign languages and the QT
Hello Cindy,
If you have a BRAILLENOTE BT you can connect to the computer and use the
BRAILLE-NOTE'S
keyboard but if you have a VOICENOTE BT like I do you can not.
I wish that they'd put BRAILLE-TERMINAL and KEYBOARD-IMMULATOR with the
remote
synthesizer on my VOICENOTE.
Cause it would be a heck of a lot easier to use my VOICE-NOTE'S KEYBOARD
then the regular
keyboard I'm probably more then likely going to have to learn how to use to
work
window-eyes on my computer.
So believe me I get your frustration totally!
I shall go for now!
I hope to hear from you again very soon!

LOVE!")
