Here's another vote for the Greek category! And some worse ones, too! Oh my!
I got rid of that thing as fast as I could, but apparently the person who so
kindly took it off my hands is enjoying it. Not my idea of enjoyment though.
And you can''t expect anyone not to be biased. Inevitably every person who
has used one or the other and especially both will have his or her
preference.

It comes under that category for me too. I'll stick with my braillenote.

I agree with Jim bout learning the BrailleNote with very little effort. I
had opportunity to thoroughly test a PacMate with the BT keyboard. I found
the multi-layered commands very hard to remember from one time to the next
and while I realize that the PacMate is a very sophisticated and powerful
little critter, it just never floated my boat. All this is to say what we
all keep saying: this is really, really an individual thing. Not only do
different people have different needs when it comes to a portable device,
but different people think differently, and what seems logical and
intuitive to one may be completely Greek to the next. PacMate comes under
that Greek category as far as I'm concerned.

Hi Beth,
What you say is so, but I can say from my personal experience I was doing
a
great deal with my BN in a very short time after receiving it. I was able
to feel very comfortable with it during a convention presentation. It
really doesn't take much to accomplish a great deal with a BN, VN or PK.
I
think I could learn a competition product in time but it would take more
time for me to do so. I agree! One eventually needs to find the patience
to read any part of the manual.
Feel free to write me privately about my next question if you wish, but am
curious to find out when you hope to decide on which notetaker you will
get? Was just wondering!

Hi, all. I would like to point out that, no matter how intuitive a
system
is, there is still a large learning curve associated with it. You must
read, study and learn the manual of the BN, just as you would the PM.
