Although I don't proof, if I did, I'd use Kurzweil, my Focus forty display, and jaws with windows xp. The main reason why I don't proof is because I don't like to be always tied down to my computer. Now, if I had a Braille Note or Pack Mate, I'd probably start proofing because then I could take the book with me.

Like somebody said, I'v wanted one for ages. I saw a pacmate with a braille display a few years ago and its portability put me squarely in the land of want.

For proofreading I use MSWord. Hope that helps, and welcome to the list!

My question for braille users is what equipment or technology do you find most effective for proofreading books? Write me off list if you prefer.
