Julie,

What will you be studying when you begin school again? Hope you get your issues 
with your puppy settled satisfactorily.

Thanks for all the recipes you send. I know it takes a lot of time to type all 
that.

Take care and have a good week.

Susan

.If you're involved with rehab and attending school as I am, that's how I got 
.the Braille Lite I have and the Kurzweil software I have, but people do buy 
.it and do have it without rehab, so it was just a suggestion. I don't have 
.the translation software and can't speak for it, so I left that alone. I 
.don't suggest or recommend things unless I know what they're like, so I 
.leave that for those who know more than I do. Take care.

.A much cheaper option for reading Web Braille books is to download and use
.the National Federation for the Blind's NFBTrans software.  It's not
.perfect, but does quite a good job of translating the web braille files into
.text, so they can be read by any screen reading software.  Who can afford a
.braille display?
