Hello Laura. Despite the new features and enhancements in the Millenium units, I've heard a lot of negative feedback in their regard. If, as you said, you will be mostly taking notes in meetings, then the BLT's keys are much quieter and less intrusive. If you have a laptop on hand, then I am assuming that having loads of internal storage in your note taker isn't that much of a priority. If it is, you might want to go with the M40. Otherwise, get the BLT for $2000. That is a real bargain. I've had my Braille Lite for 5 years and love the thing. -- Attached file included as plaintext by Ecartis -- --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
