Steve,

A list would be most welcome, particularly in the early days while we learn
what we are doing?

It is a bit of a shame that we are not talking about the booksense itself.
It has a great deal going for it in my view.

Hi John,

Software updates will be on the Comproom and the RNIB web site I would
imagine.  It will certainly be on ours.

Regarding the list, I will  set it up over the weekend and let you all know.

All the best

Steve

Subject: [access-uk] the booksense in the uk

Hi list,
David is correct in what he said with regards to gwmicro.
it is the same with the braille sense plus hear in the uk. gwmicro
are not responsible for this product in the uk it is the dealer who
sells it in the uk that one should ring or get in touch with about
the product. the booksense is the same.
I acquired my booksense yesterday from Steve Nut who is getting them
out as fast as he can.
the booksense in the uk has different software than the uk model so
in the uk you must remember if it is announced on the booksense list
that an upgrade is out do not download it.
of course it will work but it will be the us software.
I had a chat with Steve who said he hopes to set up a uk list as
regards the booksense but I am not sure about software updates.
will it be on the comproom site or r n i b?
as Carol said gwmicro are very good with support but again we must
remember Steve has to run a business and cannot be expected to be on
an email list all day answering messages.
with the braillesense from hims I get my upgrades from the force ten
website but with the braille sense you plug it in and it will
automatically upgrade the software.
there is never a uk announcements about the upgrade if you look it is
there or it is not.
with regards the booksense manual I am going to look on my cd that
came with it and I hope the manual is different from the one I
downloaded from the gwmicro site.
the booksense is very good indeed I have the xt version.
if I read a tnauk file you have to unzip it then change it to a txt
from a doc file and it reads in the booksense.
you can search for words so I search for the hash and it gets me to
the next heading.
well I must rush now to do a tuning so we need a uk email booksense
list as the us list is no good for us as regards support.
