Here is a question I would like to pose to this list. Have any of you actually encountered any problems when flying with the Braillenote? Have any of you been advised that you couldn't take the device on a plane? Because, I sincerely doubt that any of you have run into any serious issues because of the Braillenote. I have flown many times since 911 and there has never been an issue. As Jonathan stated, if they want to scan it, they will, if the don't they won't. I have flown with laptops as well, sometimes I have been made to boot the machine so that the airport screener would know that it was in fact a laptop and not a bomb with an LCD display. However I know of no blind individual who has ever encountered a major problem when flying with a Braillenote.

He then has forwarded me information about this, which I will be happy to send to anyone, off list, as it is rather long. The documentation also includes information pertaining to canes, & service dogs.
