Hi Julia, Unfortunately, I can't use my BN in this capacity...my BN has a Braille keyboard and unless the person I'm talking to knows Braille, I'm out of luck.
I would love to see some kind of "face to face" communication mode or TTY emulator for the BN -- even if it's an optional accessory. I don't want to exchange my Braille keyboard for a QWERTY just to make two way communication possible. I Braille much faster than I type and my accuracy is much better via a Perkins keyboard as opposed to QWERTY. As Jonathan already stated, the capacity to type via the BrailleNote to another computer is under development. That alone would solve most of my problems. If that can be incorportated into the next update, I won't have to worry about having to change keyboards on my BN.
