Hi,
I have a question and I hope someone will answer it it. I have a pacmate 40
but stopped using it since I could not afford the omni update. I recently
movbed and I found the charger and couldn't find the pacmate itself. Then I
found the pacmate and have misplaced the charger. My first question is will it
cost me an arm and a leg to replace the charger if I go through Freedom
Scientific? Is it even worth it to replace the charger when all of my files are
stored on memory cards which I transfer between my cell phone and computer. I
found the communications cord to the thing and plugged in the braille display
just to see what would happen and I got the prompt asking me to insert the pm
cd. So now my question becomes if I find the cd, won't I have to figure out a
way to charge the pm just to install the drivers once I have inserted the cd
into the computer? am i confusing anyon here? I'm planning to use the braille
display as a means to assisting me with proofing bookshare titles and just to
have braille backup when I'm on the web. Any suggestions or hand holding
through this process would be appreciated. Even if it appears that I will have
to swuirel away my pennies and buy omni, I will do that if it seems in my best
interest to do so. Thanks in advance.
