Hi Eric:
I have not TAKEN THE BRAILLESENSE through its paces, but one will soon
arrive here on SOME KIND OF A LOAN from a reseller and I will have AMPLE
TIME to play with it.
Without mincing words, GW Micro DOES PROVIDE better tech support. Their
staff RESPOND quickly to questions and they do indeed help solve problems.
In my opinion, they do a better job of testing and then again retesting
their software offerings before releasing it to the marketplace.
As for hardware, the BrailleSense is much lighter in size; only the MPower
comes somewhat close to matching the BrailleSnse in size. The only caveat
orking against he Brailleense is that itcomes only in a 32-cell system and
currently DOES NOT support the GPS offering from GW Micro; the company has
indicated that THIS WILL CHANGE!!
Unlike Humanware that MANUFACTURES the BrailleNote, BrailleSense is actually
manufactured in South Korea by H I M S, and GW Micro is its North American
distributor. Both companies do have to work together on the project.
Another great thing going for the BrailleSense: It has a built-in LCD
display. Its built-in Ethernet port is a plus for me as Cat5 cables won't
become extinct or discontinued in the morning!!
Sincerely,
Olusegun
Denver, Colorado
