Don. Do you know how crazy your suggestion sounds<grin>? I guess the salesmen would have to say. It downloads e-mail, but not very well and it has other problems with the e-mail client as well. And, by the way, you won't be able to get to all of the web pages you want to. I don't think that that would be very effective marketing<grin>. And I guess I should ask, Don, would you sign the same kind of document for every electronic purchase you made?

Perhaps PDI should require that each new user of a bn be presented with a document clearly explaining exactly what a braillenote is intended to do and what it is not. They should then be required to read this document fully and sign a statement saying they have read it and understand its contents fully. Then, and only then, would they be allowed to purchase a braillenote or other member of this product family.

Don And List,
It is actually quite fortunate that this theme has to be repeated every
month or so, as there are new subscribers to the Braillenote list.  These
new subscribers are hearing this message for the first time.  And the
message is a good one to think about.

Sincerely,

Richard,

You are right on target as far as I'm concerned.  What's really unfortunate
too is that this theme has to be repeated every month or so it seems.

Maybe we could automate the process and have the server send out your
message about every 30 days.

Such a business traveler, if he/she is downloading large files and large
volumes of email may well be better served by getting a lap top computer
rather than any PDA.  No PDA is as robust and stable as a PC.
I once downloaded 1200 messages on my laptop and no crashes, no freeing
of databases etc.
I am not slamming the Braillenote, believe me!  I simply think that if
you will be downloading huge amounts of email and if you require a
device that can download large music files, no PDA will accomplish these
tasks as efficiently as a lap top.  And, lap tops are cheaper anyway!
If, on the other hand, you understand that a PDA is a wonderful device
when used as it was intended, then you won't have some of the problems
that are being encountered by some on this list. I simply don't feel
that the Braillenote was ever intended to handle the kind of email
traffic that some are attempting to download.  You wouldn't put a lawn
mower engine in your pick up truck and expect the same kind of
performance as one would get from a standard v6 engine.

Subject: [Braillenote] BN PK re missing files and E-mail problems


As a prospective BN PK purchaser, I am very concerned about the problems
of
disappearing files and inability--or at least great difficulty--in
downloading large amounts of E-mail and large files.  Is the PK going to
resolve these issues?  This should be top priority.  For example, look
at
the business travelers to whom the PK will be a godsend.  What if they
have
many E-mails to download while they are away?  Thanks.  Beth
