Hi Terry,
The DymoTape won't come off inside the BN?
That worries me.
Think I'll just try to remember (although I have forgotten in the past, so
it could happen again).
Thanks for all the advice to you and so many others on this very busy list.

Don;
I also put my lables in the upper left corner with the ridge facing down and
away from me.
This is just how it would go in to the machine.
Think of the CF card laying on the table,
ridge on the table, at the top or away from you
put the lable in the upper left corner
use dimo tape

Subject: Re: [Braillenote] PK broken cf Slot
Regarding the problem with the broken slok for the cf card, I had a
conversation via email with someone recently who told me that they had
contacted PDI
about this problem and was told that the cf slot is built into the
motherboard so that if the slot does break, it requires replacement of the
entire motherboard.
This person said that this can happen if you force the card into the slot
upside down and strongly suggested that I mark all my cf cards so I know
which is
the top side. After this conversation I did notice that the ones I have do
have a slight ridge on the underside of the card where it sticks out of the
bn so you
can tell which is the top in which is the underside. This may be unique to
this brand though which I think is Sandisk, so you might consider putting
some sort
of small label towards the outer edge of the card so there's no possibility
it could get stuck in the bn.
The Ambicom wireless card has a ridge around the top side so it's quite easy
to identify it's correct position.
I haven't had the slot break, but have accidently tried putting the card in
upside down a few times and gotten the "card not recognized" message.
But, if you are careful, and especially if you make certain to put the card
in correctly you should not have a problem.
The sad thing is that all it takes is one time doing it incorrectly and
pushing a bit too hard.
I'm sure this warning goes for both the pk and bn and probably any other
device which uses a cf card.
