I personally do not regret trading my mpower for the apex. But it really
does depend on what you want to do with it. I have not seen the braille plus
but it does sound intriguing. Do I wish the apex had word support sure. I
would like to see a few other improvements but overall I like it. It boils
down to personal preference.

Absolutely not! No! It is not worth it! I regret my purchase to this day!
You should get the Braille Plus 18 from APH. That will do so much more for
you in the long term, and the price is much more reasonable even if it's not
cheap. To all the people that are thinking about buying an Apex for an
upgrade. Don't! It's not worth it at all. You still will not have word 2007
support, and you will still ha bad browser. The Braille Sense U2 is no
better either. But really that part is not not the companies faults. I would
advocate the Braille Plus 18 because it has the latest in technology, it's
open platform meaning you can download apps, and it has all the things that
the Apex should have but doesn plus ten times more. It has flash capability,
a fully functional scan and read solution (OCR), a camera, and a built-in
cell phone! It also supports html 5 on the web! I myself have not played
with one, but consumer reports look promising! I guess my materialistic
personality got the best of me when I hit that buy button on the HW web
site. Ouch on you Humanware! Thanks for ripping us off! Trust me! You'll
thank me later! And yes, it is unfortunate that Humanware is not delivering
what they really should be. It's a shame that as of right now you wouldn't
really be getting much value for upgrading to not Apex, but that's just the
way it is.
