[gps-talkusers] Re: carrying the Braille Note

One thing I discovered when carrying the BN and using GPS is that it's a 
good idea not to have any storage cards in the slot on the inside cover of 
the lid.  While we were walking around Portland and I was using GPS, a card 
I had in that slot fell out.  Fortunately, I was with my sighted husband 
and he saw it fall and picked it up.  It was just a regular storage card, 
not a micro drive, so the card was fine.  But it was a good lesson that 
when walking with the BN case open, any storage cards should be in the 
zipper compartment or a separate purse or briefcase.
