Don, You took the works right out of my mouth. If this works, it will help a lot of visually impaired government workers who have had to find awkward work-arounds while their sighted co-workers have been using blackberries. This may lead to some very nice sales for HumanWare. I wonder if it will make up for the loss of sales in the braille note arena?
