Hi Josh and list again, One more thing: As to the reasons for seven program limi on the BSP is because of number of processes - Windows CE 5.0 and under can run up to 32 processes (more info later). Now, I'm done - I'm off to bed (I have a morning class at 8 AM tomorrow). Cheers, Joseph

There have recently been people on this list wondering about the braille sease. I have used one of these this summer. I am an expert on the braille sense, but I'll do my best to give you my opinions on both the braillenote, and the braille sense. In my opinion, one of the major drawbacks of the braille sense is its non-user friendly interface. The braille sense isn't something you can just give to anyone, and expect them to learn how to use it in a few days. The braillenote is much easier to work with. Also, the braille sense calculator has no fraction capability. The braille sense has an lcd that a sighted person can look at, but the thing is so small, that a sighted observer would have a hard time reading it. The braille sense also has no dictionary or thesaurus. Also, the reset button is located in the stupidest place, right on the front of the unit. It is not recessed to prevent accidental use, or anything. Another thing I have heard about the braille sense is that if the battery needs to be replaced, you will loose all data on the flashdisk. The braille sense also has some features that the braillenote doesn't have, but not many. The braille sense supports msn messenger. Also, the user can replace the battery without sending the unit in for service. In fact, the unit comes with a backup battery. final conclusion: In my opinion, I think the mpower is a much better choice. ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
