Hi Andrew,
Not true. Note takers are very rudimentary with their word processors
nowadays. With Quick Office or Google Docs for Android, or Pages for
iPhones and iPads, you can go streets ahead of them.
All the best

Hi Carol
I know Steve is very strict about going off topic - but as we are
discussing the subject; I would imagine that your note taker has much
better word-processing capabilities as compared to a phone or tablet.
This is relevant to me as I'm contemplating buying a Braillesense or a
lap-top for documents.
