Greetings all: My name is Jamie Pauls. Some of you may recognize me as the moderator of the Victor Reader Stream discussion list, the owner of AccessWatch, a contributor to the Blind Cool Tech podcast, or a part of the Main Menu team. I am about to become the proud owner of a BrailleNote BT 32 and I have a few questions.
First let me state that I have used a Pac Mate QX 40 for five and a half years. When it became obvious that the old beast I had been using for so long was about on its last legs, I decided after quite a bit of research to acquire a BrailleNote. I have scoured the user guide and listened to about every presentation I could find on the Internet relating to the unit. I feel that I know about as much as I can know without actually putting my hands on the thing and playing with it. With that out of the way, here are my questions: 1. Regarding the use of KeyNote or Eloquence, is there a noticeable difference in responsiveness between the two synthesizers on the unit? I am certainly more familiar with Eloquence, but will switch to KeyNote in a heartbeat if it will improve my productivity with the notetaker. 2. When I receive my new BrailleNote, what is the liklihood that the battery will have any charge at all? Should I just plug it into the wall as soon as I receive it or will it most likely have some charge when I get it? This should get me started. Thanks for your help in advance.
