That will never happen. PDI made it extremely plain that the upgrade to version 6.1 burns the new operating system and the new version of Keysoft into rom. There is no going back and never will be. Once you upgrade, that's the way it will stay. Remember, it's not a laptop or PC, it's a PDA with all the proprietary things that entails. Sorry to give disappointing news.

That does happen, you know. Been down the tube a few times.

If something goes wrong the machine can not back up to 5.1 like 5.1 can back up to 5.0. What do we do, keep it on disk in case something goes wrong?

Once installed, you can't go back, unless I'm not understanding your meaning. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brenda Mueller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, March 08, 2005 10:14 PM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Trepidation > Well,Bob, I haven't been too eagger to upgrade. I think a company comes up with one good program, and then when it starts to compete, it just adds bells and whistles. Now didn't this company merge? Either that entity will come up with a good product, or I'm gone. > This stuff about email problems and disk denied problems shouldn't have happened. Now in all fairness, maybe some users created the problem by leaving cards and such in the system, something I don't do. Still I'm suspicious of the upgrades. I'm not paying $300 for a batch of errers. Besides, the new program with instructions should come on a Compact flash card or a disk > You shouldn't need a PC to add a new program. Since I'm airing what I think, I'll tell you something else. Whoever would send a disk drive without a way to format those disks? I shouldn't have to do it on another piece of equipment. I should be able to do it with my Voice Note. That oversight is just stupid in my oppinion. Fix it. I brought this up before with no response. In addition, I called the company with a problem I had some two weeks ago. I sat on hold for about 45 minutes, left a message, and got no response. I finally found a solution, but is this what PDI calls service? Yes, I enjoy my system as it is, but I'm scared to send it back. They might ruin it. > > In addition, I think my previous version should be stored on that card in case the newer version doesn't work. Loosing emails and abilities to use flash cards etc. is inexcusable, especially for the prices PDI charges. That's my view. > > > > Brenda Mueller > > ----- Original Message ----- > >From: bob mates <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >To: Rhonda Clark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,Braillenote List <[email protected] > >Date: Tue, 08 Mar 2005 11:05:40 -0800 > >Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Trepidation > > >Hi, Rhonda and list: Rhonda, I think you make a very salient point. Trust your instincts, as I will, about this product. In general, the BN has been a great product. I intend, for the time being, to stick with 5.1. That's me. I'm sure that, eventually, these problems will be resolved. As Rhonda said, if you're not sure, don't install. Have a great day. God bless.
