Hi, Linda.  I met someone at the CSUN conference last year, who told me
that Stevie Wonder attends every year, just to shop.  In the early days,
the installation disk for Window-Eyes started with a few words from Ronnie
Milsap.  I can't even imagine walking into a tech exhibit hall, like the
ones at CSUN conferences, with money being of no concern!  I'll take three
BrailleNotes, and a Braille-Lite just for those occasions where I require
silent keys!  Oh, and throw in one of those detachable things, just so I
can write about it on the list.
Aloha,
Doug
