[bcab] Re: Opinions on the Voice Sense from GWMicro.

Hi,

Some of this post is factually incorrect.  You can also do GPS while writing
notes on the Braille Note.  On the BT versions, backspace with Enter with W
to get into the Word Processor from anywhere, then backspace with enter with
N to get back to navigation, and GPS keeps right on running.

Just thought I'd point that out, since this post gives incorrect impressions
of the Braillenote's power.  You can also be on the web and go back to the
word processor in a similar manner.  Or do any other task.

You can only do two simultaneously, but that ought to be enough for anyone.

Oh yes, and you can listen to an MP3 and browse the net as well.

On the down side, you can't do MSN with Braillenote.

All the best

Steve

You can do many things simultaneously on the Braille sense. You can
browse the internet while listening to mp3s. Or write a word document
while editing audio etc. You can't do that on the other notetakers.
You can do GPS while writing notes. Also, the service and support is
superior. I use a Braille Sense 32, and if  anyone wants one also, I
also have an extra I have not ended up having to use since they are so
reliable. I can sell it for 1450 pounds, and it is like new.
