As I understand it, part of the problem, in jaws anyway, is that fs has not allowed any other company to use usb connections into jaws. In this case it is not entirely the fault of hw at all, much like the ms word support.

Have a great day,
Alex

Subject: Re: [Braillenote] braille display and synth: needs to go
Usb!

Hi Bryan and all, I agree that BrailleNote/VoiceNote should have
USB
facilities so we can use our units as a Braille display and/or
hardware
synthesizer, because, thanks to Vista, I am unable to use my
BrailleNote
mPower as a bluetooth Braille display. Thanks in advance for
taking this
into consideration!

Dear Andy and list:

I agree it is high time Humanware put in an option to use the
BrailleNote/VoiceNote as a display for Windows using a USB
connection.

Not sure why they haven't done so this far.  Perhaps they are
waiting for the port of KeySoft to Windows CE 6 as I've been
told
they will have to completely rewrite their program to do this.

Actually I find USB plugs reasonably robust, but don't have any
serious fine motor control problems, although from time to time
the USB plugs and ports on this Dell XPS laptop defy mating with
each other!

For help finding a USB to serial adapter, try Tiger Direct,
either their http://www.tigerdirect.com web site or (800)
8800-8300.

Take care.

Brian
