Hi, I'll try and answer as many of your questions as I can. When you receive messages you first land on the subject field and you can space down to see who it is from if you don't want to read it then you can use backspace with dots 2 3 5 6 to send it to trash. If you are reading a message and you wish to reply to it then there is a email options menu that you get to with space with dots 2 and 6. I have never had anyone complain about translation errors when I have sent messages from my PK. Because I use the PK for email it does have a problem with large amounts of email however the few times I have used my MPower I haven't had any problems with it, the resetting is more to do with the f use.
Another thing you can do is search by subject or name, so if you are following a discussion from one list but you have lots of messages in your inbox that is painful to sort through to find the right messages then you can search by subject and put what subject line you are looking for and all the messages with that subject will be shown without the other messages and once you have finished reading them then all you need to do is go back into the inbox and you will find all the other messages still there. When reading messages and you hit space with E to exit the current message it will ask you where you want to move the message and then you can choose to trash it or if you want to keep it then you can move it to another folder. You have a "my emails" folder as a default but you can make your own folders if you wish. Hope this helps to answer some of your questions. >From Shaz.

Hello, since I've had my MPower since February 08, and the classic model for six years before that, I've never tried the online capabilities of either unit. Now Sendero tells me that they'll sell me a wireless card which will work with the MPower. I'm considering this, especially since I deal with hundreds of e-mails a day from discussion lists, and I've had four Windows computer crashes this year alone. I was reading the manual on e-mail, and it sounds straightforward. I've been an Outlook Express user for ten years, and I'm used to being in the list of messages, hearing the from and subject fields and hitting the delete key quickly. This way, I can move quickly through the discussion lists, while not reading every message. Can this be done in the MPower, or do you actually open each message and scroll through the fields? If you move through the fields with dot 4 chord, can you delete fields so that when moving through, you can just hear the from and subject field before deciding whether to read? Also, I've heard about needing to reset the unit a lot, but is this more prevalent in the browser than with e-mail? Can the MPower deal well with a high volume of e-mail? Do you always have to go through the menus to get to options, or can you hit R chord to reply to an open message? Also, are there translation errors sometimes when writing in grade two which translate back to regular print? Was there ever an audio demo of either e-mail or the browser so I can hear it in action before I buy the card? I can't do anything until I have the card. Thanks a lot.
