I paid more than $6000 for my unit more than two years ago and I am
somewhat displeased with the unit; I consider myself fortunate to have
the resources to purchase other tech to supplement my inadequate
Braille-Note. I truly have problems with you indicating we should be
grateful for something we paid for; Humanware gave us nothing we did
not pay for and this type of attitude is dangerous.

Subject: RE: [Braillenote] virtual memory
Hello List and HumanWare executives,
Why would anyone want to use speech only if they purchased a 32
cell display braillenote. For speech only, you could have gotten a
voice note and saved $3200.00, or just a little less than the price
of a 18 cell Braillenote. Speech only sucks for people in our
blind and blind-deaf community who need a braille display and
purchased their Braillenote for that reason. Lets be real people,
this upgrade has done nothing but limited what we can use our
braillenotes for. To brag about useless features which do nothing
to enhance the usability of our devices only pave the way for
HumanWare to continue giving us this junk. I know our braillenotes
are not PC's, nor do I want mine to be one, but continuously
getting upgrades which don't even live up to their advertisements
is disheartening.
I don't care about the GPS features, the chat stuff, the games, or
the radio, but those things work for some people and I don't have
to use them, however to keep adding stuff like this to Keysoft
without upgrading window's CE 4.20 or letting us have the ability
to read HTML or PDF files without performing myriads of gyrations
is mind-numbing. And what about fixing the word problem? Will that
ever happen. Come on HumanWare, get your programmers and hard-ware
designers on the stick, and get back to doing what a good business
is supposed to do. That's to provide customer satisfaction. And
an upgrade which addresses all the problems of the past 6 or 7
years would certainly do that for many of us. Your family of
BrailleNote products could capture, and out shine the PDA market,
if you would just straighten out the old problems before creating
new ones.

Procrastination is a sin,
It really is a sorrow!
It's something that I should give up,
I think I'll start tomorrow!

Hi,
I know where you are going...
As for using Braille only, no, it does not help free more virtual
memory. As
for using speech only, I need to test that condition and see what
happens.
Cheers,
Joseph

Hi Joseph and all. I understand that eloquence takes more space
than Key
Gold. Does it help more if you completely disable speech and use
braille? Or
turn the Braille off and use only speech?

Hi,
To check virtual memory, go to Options Menu, then press SPACE
with
I/READ+I
to go to Support Informaiton Mode. Then press SPACE with
I/READ+I again.
To free up virtual memory:
* Use KeyNote Gold rather than Eloquence.
* When you are done with Internet, exit KeyWeb then perform Warm
Reset.
Cheers,
Joseph

Subject: [Braillenote] virtual memory
Hi list,
I upgraded earlier this week to 8.0. I have a BN 32. When on
the web, I am getting messages about virtual memory. Today it
said virtual memory is 2. I have cleared cookies, history, and
temp files.
How do I check virtual memory and is there a way to restore it?
Thanks,
Marsha
