Hi everyone, Recently Matthew intrigued me when he referred to his using the fm radio "for traffic" reports: look out everyone in the district where he lives, he's on the road (smile).
Seriously, though, I live in an Australian Capital City (Adelaide) and cannot get ANY even MAJOR radio station even using headphones. I've NEVER opened the "games" folder NOR the "scientific calculator". What would be really innovative would be if it were possible for Humanware to streamline the future Braillenote so that customers could purchase the applications THEY will use: another producer albeit of braille displays has cottoned on to this concept. This may be totally impracticable ... but ... maybe not? I think that the overwhelming majority of BN users would agree that Keyword, Keymail, Keylist, Keyweb and Keyplan + the Mediacentre are central to this unit's life with the other features like the calculator and keybase not so crucial. We have had the catalogues of suggestions for future releases, before, and both Matthew's but especially Alex's lists of bugs do need addressing. However, without compartmentalisation it looks to me as if what's wanted is a dedicated, stand-alone mini-computer and that's not what Braillenote claims to be. I am irritated in Keyword when "number-sign 4" and only that number is pronounced "bled" and no matter what one does cannot change that presentation — even after its translation into a "word format".
