Tracy, I wrote to Kevin, partially because I thought that very few people
would understand the magic of braille. I love even the smell of a braille
book. I love my technology, but paper is real. It would be good if it didn't
take up so much room, but it does.

Kevin, At last, a man after my own heart! I was beginning to think I was the only person left who loves hardcopy braille. I love to sit in the shade on a summer's day, braille book in hand. Or relax in my comfy chair in the evening, and read, maybe with music or the ballgame on in the background. jSomehow, the braille on my Braille Lite isn't quite the same, although that's good, too. And now my Braille Lite needs repair, so here I am. I want them to bring back Web-Braille, but I love my hardcopy. Tracy
Don't get me wrong, I love my Braillenote as much as the next person loves
theirs, but for my money there is nothing better than putting some soft
instrumental jazz in the CD player, parking myself in my recliner, and
losing myself in a good, real, old-fashioned Braille book. Try doing that
with a Bookport! <smile> And the advantage to hard copy is that you never
have to recharge it. But, then again, I readily admit that I am an old
fossil who was not brought up on technology. Yes indeed, Braille books are
cumbersome, bulky and everything else, but it's my fervent hope that they
will continue to be produced, even in today's high tech world. Braille
rocks!
