Good Day:
The only problem of which I am aware is with the download of
books from the NLS bard web site. Books can be successfully
unpacked and read on the BrailleNote. According to Humanware,
research is being conducted to fix the problem with downloads, so
that one will be able to download, extract and read any desired
book on the one device. I have used flash drives, the internal
flash disc and an SD card with equal facility. In fact, if you
listen to the presentation of KeySoft 9.1, available on several
web sites, you will hear one of the presenters from Humanware
opening a book on a flash drive, which leaves me completely
mystified as to why two people from the technical support
department would have said it didn't work. Evidently, some
quality inspections need to be conducted on that department. As
to my quote about education, I find it applies to various
situations. (smile)

Hi;
I guess education never ends. When initially talking with
humanware a
few weeks ago a girl said there was a problem with nls and the
braille
note and they were waiting for nls to get things together. Don't
hold
your breath. I subsequently talked with another gentlemen in
their tech
support who said everything worked fine as long as you used an sd
card.
Do I understand that you have had no problem using both the
existing
memory and a card?
its perplexing.

Fortunately,
books do not have to be stored on SD cards. They can be stored
on the
internal 8 gb flash disc, on a thumb drive or on any other
medium
through which the BrailleNote can access data.

Subject: [Braillenote] braille note commands
Hi everyone;
The fact that there is a good menu option until you absorb those
short
cut keys is rather reassuring. Also, I was happy to hear that
the unit
ships with a braille set of commands. Sometimes nothing like
good old
paper.
How has the unit performed with nls? Am I correct that when
using nls
you have to save the book to a sd card rather than the internal
memory?
