I truly understand that many cannot afford a PDA nor would some be able
to learn to use one even if they could.  What I believe is unfortunate
is that if individuals bring an idea to this or any other mailing list
that they feel it must be met with unbounded agreement or, those who do
not agree are branded as elitists, technically gifted, or in the case of
some Luddites.  To disagree with a proposal is simply to express an
opinion.  And, if I choose to disagree with an idea, this doesn't mean I
intend to attack or criticize the source of that idea.  Every suggestion
is valid, but if I choose to make a suggestion, I'm not going to flame
those who do not believe that my idea is a good one.

Isn't it interesting how these discussions immediately degenerate from 
issues to personal attacks? And isn't it interesting which side is
always 
doing the attacking?

I know, and I even see a lot of folks in the BEP program in a lot of
states, 
including ours, that aren't getting rich at it, and are not tech savy.
But 
I am sure they could get a lot of good out of a simple to use device.
But I 
guess our friends would rather they continue to use a Perkins Braille
Writer 
since they aren't technically gifted.
