Hi all,

I hope this isn't off topic. I'm just expressing my thoughts about the BrailleNote.

I'm getting very annoyed by the bn's instability. I've been experiencing many bugs with the BrailleNote lately. My bn has frozen or just locked up out of nowhere, refused to turn on, choked on digital talking books and caused me to lose all my data, didn't load some pages in Keyweb, given me a million exception command and data misalignment messages, etc and I've had to reset millions of times. Also, some touch cursor keys have been getting damaged. I've already sent it twice to Humanware for repair: the first time was because the braille display got damaged and the second time was because of a damaged touch cursor key. Both times were months from each other. To be more specific, I sent my bn for repair the first time last April and then in August. Early last month, I started having problems with other touch cursor keys, but then they stopped because I sprayed the display with compressed air. However, now I'm having problems again with a touch cursor key. It isn't working.

The BrailleNote has indeed been a helpful device since I use it for almost everything including for school and to surf the Internet. However, the constant bugs are really irritating. If this continues, I may just lose my faith in the BrailleNote.
