(compared to what i've spent before to upgrade software) is quite

to jut cutting them. The dock is a lot better too. For

Hello friends. As some of you know I've been having problems pairing
my bn apex with my iphone 4. A tech support representative from
Humanware informed me that the pairing currently works with the apex
32 cell notetaker. Compatibility with the apex 18 will come soon
either in an update from
in San Frnncisco, but I don't know
if they have any for iphones.
What happened to the voice sense and sync braille?
