Yes i think an xl type program would be great. Also the ability
to use websites with complex java and xml and content that
updates without reloading the page without the need to turn off
java script to get the mobile version.

And how come a budgeting (Exel-like) program and language
dictionaries are still not available? I know language
dictionaries are now offered as extras with the BrailleSense
products. If HumanWare don't want to fall behind, they need to
look at this and pay attention. Admittedly, none of these
products have an Exel-like program except for the PacMate, but
budgeting is a basic every-day need and since our APEXES are like
our every-day pen-and-paper like devices, I would consider
a program for keeping track of accounts just as vital as the
planner and the address book. I might be wrong. I know people
want facebook access and games but surely something so basic
should be up the top of the priority list or am I the only voice
shouting in the wilderness about this?
Cheers!
Michele

How sad is it that users have to joke about features we were
promised
months, even years, ago? As always, hw should take this as a call
to
actually implement useful features, not an open-source pdf to
text
converter for which they charge $200. I'm not saying pdf support
is
not useful, but for the price of an sma or single upgrade, we
should
have had bt object exchange and Word 2007 support like hw said
they
would do years ago. What about multi-tasking on the apex,
another
thing they said the apex could now do thanks to ce6? Where is it?

Yes, that would be great if this was real. This is exactly the
kind of feature we are looking for as users. Why shouldn't we
have such features? After all, these devices are quite
expensive,
so we as the users, should expect these features. It would be
great to transfer files wirelessly and read 2007/2010 documents.

9.3 forBrailleNote Apex
Got this from the News Wire:
March 31, 2012: HumanWare provides a sneak preview of KeySoft
9.3
for BrailleNote Apex
HumanWare today unveiled a sneak preview of KeySoft 9.3, the
much
anticipated release of KeySoft for BrailleNote Apex users.
Featuring reliable performance and packed with anticipated
features, this version of KeySoft brings more height to Apex
that
was never seen before.
Get latest files - without wires
In 2004, HumanWare introduced wireless networking functionality
to allow users to browse and manage files stored on other
computers. In KeySoft 9.3, this functionality has been expanded
to provide file transfers over Bluetooth. Just pair the Apex
with a PC or another Apex and use File Manager's handy "export"
and "import" feature to transfer documents between an Apex and
another computer - without wires.
More reading options with more document formats support
In addition to enhanced tables and formatting support brought
with KeySoft 9.1, KeySoft 9.3 brings more options for your
reading pleasure thknks to the reworked KeyWord reading engine.
In KeySoft 9.3, you can now open Microsoft Word 2007 and 2010
documents, as well as read OpenOffice documents. And, if you
have an Internet connection, you can now use "save to online
services" to store your documents on services such as Google
Docs.
Flexible features through third-party development tools
As a note of thanks to continued support for BrailleNote family
of froducts, HumanWare is pleased to announce the availibility
of
third-party development features. Use a PC to write your
favorite programs and test them on a BrailleNote simulator
before
loading the finished product to your BrailleNote for
distribution. This environment also supports mPower and PK.
Also, to take advantage of our development tools, HumanWare will
debut two new KeySoft extensions this summer to push the Apex's
functionality to a new level. Use Social Connections Center to
manage tweets, post to a friend's Facebook page and more. Or if
you need some break, come on to our Games Lounge featuring word
games and card games.
KeySoft 9.3 is a free upgrade - provided that you already have
KeySoft 9.1 or later on your Apex. A version for mPower and PK
will be released alongside KeySoft 9.3 this fall. Stay tuned on
BrailleNote News Wire for fuffther details.
Cheers,
Joseph P.S. APRIL FOOLS!!!!!!!
