Hi Mike and Happy holiday! First of all I wanted to get into the chat site tonight but inadvertantly deleted the address. Ok, my main question is concerning gps and the 6.1 upgrade. I know you have been working to get the gps online with the PK butfor those with the older regular Braille Notes, will there be a patch of some kind for our gps or should the version 3 be able to work with the new upgrade or don't you know yet? Thanks!
