Laura, Thank you for that information. One question about this and the Braillenote sleep mode. Say I am using the Braillenote, card incerted, and I do not touch the Braillenote for ten minutes. The Braillenote goes into sleep mode. Should I remove the compact flash disk prior to waking up the Braillenote?
