I don't read every message, so I don't know about the cuss words associated with the discussion of Voice Note. I have one with a braille keyboard. I'm not to good at names and didn't know to qualify, I had to have a braille display. What I have is a manual that talks about braille combinations. Remember how I asked about downloading books and such? Without knowing that I had a Voice Note, the commands worked. I bet if I wanted to buy a braille display, use it when I wanted and leave it at home, the company probably has one for me. I've even given advice about some commands, and they worked. So they say there are some differences in programming. What do I care? I love to get my emails and my books. I spend hours reading, listening. It's like downloading a talkingbook instantly. I won't appoligize for being able to hear. I love my machine. Of course I'd love deaf-blind users to have their braille displays, but don't deny us hearing users of sound. Brenda Mueller
