Hi everyone,

Sorry I forgot to reply to this when I read it in the digest, but I'd
like to answer Mindy Buck's earlier question regarding a way to text
to a cell phone using the BrailleNote. There is in fact a way! You can
also do this on a PC or iDevice or any other device that supports
email. There's a service called Vtext, where you can email texts. In
Keymail, go to write an email and in the send to field type in the
number you'd like to text to followed by @vtext.com. For example, (I'm
just making this number up) you would email to [email protected] if
you wanted to text to that number. That's just a made up number. Then,
in the email message field you would type your text message and send
it. It will then go to the recipient's phone number as a text. If the
person replies to the text using his/her phone, you'll get an email
with the reply. Hope this helps!

Chris

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The real
problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that exists. If
a blind person has the proper training and opportunity, blindness can
be reduced to a mere physical nuissence." -- Kenneth Jernigan
