Hi John, I believe it is bigger than the Braillenote, and you haven't a Braille display on it either. So compared to note takers for the blind, such as PacMate and Braillenote, these are still rather large, and you couldn't use them whilst standing up, as you can the Braillenote, because of its case configuration. Also remember, that these are full-blown PCs rather than just note takers, so they are marketed or targeted at a different kind of user.
