Another thing I wonder about the design with a user-replaceable battery, is
whether there's a flap on the bottom of the case, so you can flip it upside
down, open the flap, and replace the battery. Or do you have to take it all
the way out of its case?

The usb ports and the sd card slot are at the back of the unit. They are
built in a little. The one to connect to a computer - usb - is on the
side.
The time I spent with the unit, I found the wheel did not get in the way.
The case doesn't add that much more weight and size to the machine. As I
said last night, I was able to put it in my medium sized purse. It
reminds
me of one of the netbooks.
You take it out of the case from the side. It doesn't appear difficult at
all.

Subject: [Braillenote] Apex design questions
Hi all, but mainly those who have seen the Apex:
I have a couple questions, just out of my own, unquenchable
curiosity about this device.
1. The sd slot: is it still in the bottom of the device like the
mPower, or is it built into the plastic shell like on a laptop or
cell phone? How do you get cards out?
2. Can you fold the top of the case under the unit like the
mPower or pk cases, or will the pocket and rubber feet get in the
way? If you cannot fold it:
3. How easily can it be removed from its case? Most school desks
only have room for the unit, not for the unit plus the case's top
flap, so hopefully you can take the Apex out easily.
4. Are the USB ports on the back surrounded by metal like those
on the mPower, or are they built in like on a laptop?
5. Do you find the scroll wheel gets annoying while typing?
6. Does the case add a lot of size to the Apex? The mPower case
makes the mPower seem much larger than it actually is and I
wonder if the Apex's case will do the same.
7. Is the magnetic flap secure, or could you see it coming open
easily?
Thanks for any answers!!
