Hi, I agree with the communication.
And I am impressed with the data sets and fractions, it's been helpful. I agree with the fact the OS is out of date slightly and something could be done in that area. To whoever mentioned something about the file system, I don't have too much trouble. Just name the files easy titles to identify. Making folders for various things helps. For example, being in school, I have folders for math, English, Spanish etc. So yes it could be improved but keep in mind also that if you are asking for something that the BrailleNotes cannot do, I would consider a laptop or similar device. The BrailleNote is just a PDA, although behind of the others indeed. Just my thoughts. cheers.
