Hi Ann
I thought that was a little harsh.
In these days of Mobile phones that can do almost anything, is it
really that unreasonable for a blind person to want their braille
device to be able to do the sort of things that their sighted friends
can do with their PDAs? I don't really think so.
Humanware are clearly thinking of the braillenote as far more than a
notetaker, judging by the kinds of features they include.
Having said this, you could very well have your tongue firmly in your cheek.
Talk soon

Hi all,
The BrailleNote is a notetaker, *not* a computer. You want a small
device that you can add chat programs to, but give up complete
Braille support then sell your BN and get a PacMate and spend the
rest of your life struggling to figure out if Windows CE will or
won't work on your product have one that comes in two parts, have
one that doesn't mirror every single message in braille. Fine. You
want computer programs, get a computer!
