Hi Sabhatin, I hope I spelled your name correctly. I was wondering out of curiosity who do you correspond with on the messenger service you mentioned? Is it frequented more by other people who are blind or visually impaired? The reason I ask is I have never heard of this service before and I would like to see about signing up for it. Is it free? Usually when people give their instant messaging info it's for ICQ, Yahoo, AOL or MSN which leads me to wonder if people who are sighted use this service or would be willing to use this service. Also are you only able to type 500 characters using computer Braille? I would think so since that seems to be the norm on Web pages with the BN. Thanks for your help and your time. Thank you for sharing this idea with the email list. Is this a text chat service I would guess so since I do not think the BN is equipped for voice chat. Thanks! Lisa
