Hello Irene and everyone. I'm glad the staff designed the BrailleNote in such a way that one-handed braille could be used for people who have only the use of one hand. I don't think that, from all my light-heartedness the other day, that I made clear what I was really asking. I was picturing myself trying to write one handed and wondered how it was accomplished, being that we use two hands to make most of the braille combinations and contractions. For instance, if I chose to use one-handed mode, how would I braille the letter d or, say, the WH contraction. I am asking because I'm interested. I apologize if my message the other day seemed like poking fun at those of you who use this method; that was never my intention at all. As I stated, I was picturing me doing it because I know how clumsy I can be. The attempt at humor was directed at myself. Monica Lofton professional Email:
