Hi Jessica,
To answer some of your many questions: yes, you can use a standard
cell-phone to access the internet from your Braillenote wherever you
have cell coverage. This means that you can use Keyweb and Keymail
while away from your home WIFI network, though you can't send SMS
text messages directly as you asked. Many phones will do this
including the Nokia range. The Bluetooth set-up isn't particularly
easy, but once it's done, it's very useful and works well.
I hope that helps a bit.
Best,
Peter

Hi. I have a few questions about cellphones and internet. If I got a
bluetooth cellphone, Would I be able to pair it with the bn and be
able to text and go on the internet through the cell towers without
ever having to touch the phone? I mean just do everything from the
bn. Or would I be able to just text or just go on the internet or
will it not work at all? Also, What kinds of cellphones could I get
that are bluetooth and have all buttons and no touch screen and they
talk? But I mean a normal cellphone, not one made for blind people.
Could I pare a phone with my empower, or would I have to get an
apex? How much would these phones be in canadian dollars? Ok. Now
moving away from cellphones and in to those things, I don't know
what they are called, but they are not cellphones and they let you
use the internet through the cell towers. That way, You can be on
the internet when you are on the go and you do not have to be
somewhere with a router. Can these devices be used with the bn? If
they can be used with the bn, Then would they work with my empower
or would I have to get an apex? If the devices can be used with the
bn Then how much are they in canadian dollars? Would they let me
text to or are they just for internet? Thank you in advance for any
and all help! sent from my BrailleNote
