Dear List, I chose the Braillenote BT 32 in the late summer of 2002, because I needed a note taker immediately, and at that time the Braillenote was miles ahead of anything on the market. Nothing came close. Even The Pac Mate was not in the running, as Freedom Scientific had no shipping date in sight.
in the light of the changing computer technology, soon I will be shopping for another note taker. The Braillenot will surely be in my list of options. I will again evaluate what I need now, and which product will meet my requirements. With more note takers on the market now, my decision making process toward selecting my next note taker will be more involved.

After all, I had really thought I'd leave with something from the other company. I don't think most of the readers here want me to repeat that story. I will say, however, that what I needed was new equipment to use online at home. I had been used to doing that with Braille and Speak. I had liked the portability and freedom it offered, not to mention its long battery life. When I saw the Braille Note and the price, I asked to see something without the braille display but with a braille keyboard. I figure either rightly or wrongly that I should be able to add accesseries as I need them and can afford them. I did buy the disk drive and don't see why someday I can't buy a display if I ever need one. I have what I want for my purposes at home, and it fit my wallet better. (grin.).
