Hi Brandon:

First of all, enough with using the 'F' word on this list.  Shows your level of 
maturity and it ain't very high.  I hope you're thrown off for it.

There are good reasons for HW to have made the Blackberry accessible.  When 
someone's employer says, I'm requiring you to use a Blackberry as part of your 
job, before Orator came out, we had to say, sorry boss, I can't do that.  What 
if having the Blackberry is an essential function of someone's job?  If they 
can't have one, then the employer will look for someone who can.  Not a good 
thing in these difficult times both in the USA and around the world.

Brandon, maybe you don't need to use a Blackberry, but there are plenty of 
people who do and now people who are blind can join in on using it.  I think 
that's pretty cool.

BTW, I would like to echo the thanks to HW for releasing KS 7.5 Build 31 which 
includes access to the new BookShare format.  A very good gesture to those who 
own Classic units who are not able to upgrade them, and to those who cannot 
afford an SMA.
