I can't resist the temptation to make an editorial comment here. Who else agrees with me? Back in 2004 I spent $5.000 of my hard-earned money on a BrailleNote Classic (can I get an amen? I'm sure many of you have been there!) Then in 2008 I took advantage of the transplant program and purchased the Empower, which I still currently have. Now HumanWare has come out with the Apex, and I've decided I'm not upgrading from my Empower. Reason: When most products no longer required wireless connector cards (2008), the Empower still required them. The BrailleNote, aside from its refreshable Braille display, which is fabulous, feels in my hands like 2002 era technology. I have not had the honor of seeing an Apex yet, but my guess is that the BrailleNote family of notetakers will never keep pace technologically with Apple products. I don't even go online with the Empower anymore. My Ipod does that job so much more efficiently and conveniently, and for a fraction of the cost. My next purchase will be a Braille display that connects to all of my Apple devices. BrailleNote, it's been nice knowin' ya. . . Kimberly Kimberly A.
