And who will pay the development costs that such a radical departure from current policy would entail? It is true that no one model will ever satisfy everyone, however, if PDI were to engage in a program that would involve not one new model, but several, the development costs would be astronomical, and they would be passed on to consumers somehow. Better PDI should improve upon what they already have.

The line of models would include the current model. But another model, possibly called the Braillenote Detachable might be offered for those customers seeking a detachable Braille Display. Yet another model, maybe called the Braillenote Professional might be offered to working professionals. This model might include Keynote Professional with a robust suite of business applications, security options, and the latest browser capable of handling secure web sites. Even a Build Your Own Braillenote option might be offered, where each customer could mix and match the features important to that customer. This line of models approach would end the one size fits all syndrome. Where an endless debate over the best kind of Braillenote/Voicenote occurs. No one model will ever satisfy everyone on this list an in the wider customer base. Offering a number of models to different segments of the Braillenote market might satisfy more customers, and might even increase sales.
