The brailleNote is good in my opinion, despite some drastic annoyances, it's pritty good.
It's certainly one of the most stable notetakers. It has: word processor. Planner Address list Book reader Scientific calculator Games (text adventures) File manager Fm radio, as well as other media features Pritty neet database manager As well as utilities specifically for the braillenote.The only thing that would say to you not to get the braillenote, is foreign language support. while sufficient for creating documents, it lacks serious back and forward translation.

Hi Mike, Well I reckon there are pros and cons to all of them from reading about them, though I've only actually seen two and used one. Personally I use a BrailleNote and am very happy with it despite its problems. But I think whatever you do you should have a thorough look at any unit before you buy, and preferably look at a few different ones. Also ask users what they like/don't like about what they're using. e.g. the BN has some annoying problems coping with some Word documents (note I say "some" but so far I haven't figured out/noted anyone else saying, a rule for figuring out which ones the BN will have a problem with and which it won't). The BN has other pros and cons too and if you want to know more please write to me privately at catherineturner2007@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Catherine On 5/27/08, Mike Cassidy <mike.cassidy@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi listers, I'm looking to upgrade my Braille Lite to one of the new notetakers. Which one to go for is the question: Braillenote, Pacmate Omni, Braillesense, or any other? I appreciate that there are personal opinions and sales views. Are there advantages of one over another, or is it very much a personal preference?
