Subject: [Braillenote] Keysoft 8 Thread: Dominic Gagliano
I'm forwarding the following message from Peggy which is in reply to
Dominic's earlier post concerning KeySoft 8.
If others wish to comment on this thread please use my message when
replying and NOT Dominic's original message. The reason for this is
that the total size of Dominic's original message is close to exceeding
the limit accepted by the list mailing system. This was caused by the
fact that Dominic included the list digest as part of his message.
If you reply to Dominic's original message the messages will be
discarded by the mail list.
Thanks

Thanks for the update, Dominic. I think the frustration, for me at
least,
is not so much the delay, but the total silence on HumanWare's part.
I'd
rather hear more frequent "we're still testing and fine tuning" updates
than
dead silence. It seems like HumanWare only responds when 456 people
start
grumbling and saying we're frustrated, and then we get a message like
yours.
I would rather have a message like yours posted on its own, and not as a
response to a bunch of people feeling frustrated. Just expressing my
feelings and giving feedback, and in no way meaning this as an attack.

silence of Humanware about anything BrailleNote-related>

Subject: [Braillenote] KeySoft 8 update
I read that everyone is anxious to know the status and also read a lot
of frustrations. KeySoft 8 is in its final beta testing and being
prepared for release very, soon. There is a risk in providing an exact
release date if the software is not completely tested and our only
position is to meet due dates which has happened in the past. We now
insist that we follow thru on the complete testing process and release
once R&D have given approval.
There is a good deal of speculation on features for KeySoft 8. These
have already been established and posted on this list as well as our
website. This upgrade will not include an upgrade to Windows CE.

SMA's provide for two future upgrades without any specific time frame.
If you prefer to not invest in future upgrades, then you can purchase
single upgrades at additional cost. SMA purchases help fund the cost for
engineering to produce software upgrades.
I thank those on the list that have been patient and have attempted to
explain to those others that in the end we all want a stable reliable
release.
