[gps-talkusers] Re: V3 and look-around/pois

To clarify everything on the BrailleNote that is spoken is always sent to 
the Braille Display.

Actually there is some things like the "swish counter" that is only on 
Braille.
A swish is "heard" and on the Braille display a number is displayed 
indicating the number of swishes it takes for long operations.
So braille users actually can tell how long an operation takes to complete 
like for example route finding.  We didn't "speak" the counter because that 
would be too distracting for those users who can hear but created a 
pleasant "swish" sound indicating that the machine is still busy.
