Thanks Raul, that sure does help. For, when using the VS in its
combo case while on the bus, I was spending a lot of the time
making sure the flap was out of the way of others as they were
getting on and off. But, with what you suggested below, that
flap will be completely out of their way and I can just
concentrate on using the VS and SyncBraille.

Hi Vicky. One thing which you can do when you have the combo
case open
completely is bring the flat forward as if you are going to close
it.
Instead of closing it however, tuck the end of the flap under the
back
of the Voice Sense case so it does not stick out as much in front
of
you. Hope this helps.

The combo case does make it easier to carry the VS and

together, and I have the 20 cell SyncBraille, so I can't really
complain
too much about the size. And, although I personally do prefer
thinner
rather than fatter, I do understand why the decision was made in
this
situation.
I guess, though, I still often use my mPower when out and about,
rather
than my VS and SyncBraille in the combo case, because I like
being able
to very quickly open the case and turn the unit on and readily
have the
Braille access. And, with the VS and SyncBraille, one has to
open the
combo case then the VS case, and then wait the few seconds for
the
Braille display to be active. Then, as I believe Mary Ellen
eluded to,
there doesn't seem to be a way to fold the flap of the combo
case
underneath the unit, thus a somewhat larger case flap is
potentially
sticking out for other passengers on the bus to bump as they
walk by me
going to their own seats. also, I like the fact that I can both
silently turn the mPower off as well as on.
All in all, though, I'm happy with my purchase, knew at the time
I was
buying two separate units and do like the portability that the
two
afford, both together and separately. Now, had the BSP been
available
when I made my purchase, I may have very well chosen that option
instead, but that is now something to possibly look forward to
in the
future.
