And Paul, you are incorrect. The Ok key
on the Braille Plus is the same as
Enter. The Backspace is the star, on
the telephone keypad portion.

>Hi all, we haven't had very much traffic
lately. So I thought I

>If you hate your Braillenote, you should
either buy a Braille
>plus sold by Aph or the Braille sense
plus sold by Gw micro.
>However, the Braille plus has no
built-in braille display so you
>must add an additional display. It also
doesn't have a
>back-space or enter key like the
Braillenote and Braille sense
>plus.
>However, if you want a device with 32
cells for braille, check
>out the Braille sense plus.
>This was written by me and I promote Gw
micro's products almost
>every day.
>Enjoy.
>Paul
>Are you looking into buying a great new
product sold by a great
>company?
>Gw micro has created a product called
the Braille sense plus.
>> It has 8 gb of built-in memory. And if
that isn't enough
>memory, you can put an additional high
capacity sd card, a hard
>drive, and a cfd compactflash card into
the unit.
>The Braille sense plus even has an lcd
display. You may be
>wondering, why would a person who is
blind use an lcd display.
>This is for people to be able to see the
work being done on the
>Braille sense plus, they can easily look
at the lcd display.
>However, if you do not wish for people
to see what you are doing
>on the Braille sense plus, no worries.
You can easily turn this
>optional function off by using a few
special keystrokes.
>With the Braille sense plus, you can
create, edit, print, format
>and more with the word processor. If
you need to have multiple
>documents open at once for a meeting,
schoolwork etc, you can
>have up to 10 documents open at once by
using a few keystrokes.
>The Braille sense plus does not need a
lan card or a wireless
>card for you to access the web. You can
easily just plug in your
>lan connection into your Braille sense
plus and have access to
>the full web. You don't even have to
create a connection
>configuration like the Braillenote. If
you want to use wireless
>from your home, you must create a
wireless connection
>configuration. You can even search for
wireless connection and
>connect at a hotel or a cafe. You can
search for bluetooth
>devices and connect your Braille sense
plus to your cell-phone
>and access the internet that way if
desired.
>Not only is there a full email program
on the Braille sense plus,
>but there is also msn messenger. If you
have an msn messenger
>account, you will be able to access it
on the Braille sense plus
>with no problems.
>Do you like to record and listen to
music. You can easily record
>va built-in fm radio, an external
microphone or a internal
>microphone. You can even set the
quality of recording. Note:
>The better the quality of recording, the
bigger the audio file
>will be. You may be asking "Can the
Braille sense plus record in
>any other formats than wav"? Yes, the
Braille sense plus can
>record in wav and m p 3.
>With the file manager, you can zip and
unzip files, find your
>text files, and listen your your media
files.
>The customers really like the feature of
the removable batty. If
>your battery wares out and gets shot,
you can purchase a new
>battery from Gw micro and switch the new
battery into the Braille
>sense plus.
>The Braille sense plus does not limit
you to run one task at
>once. In fact, you can have up to 7
tasks open at once by using
>one special keystroke.
>You may be thinking that this product
offers so much more than
>it's competing competitors, that it must
cost more than any
>product on the market. Well, if that's
what you think, then
>stand by for a very big surprise. The
Braille sense plus only
>costs 5995 dollars plus shipping. That
is about 300 dollars less
>than it's direct competing product
which doesn't offer as many
>features as the Braille sense plus. The
Braille sense runs on
>Windows 5.00 and is compatible to
Microsoft. You also may be
>wondering about it's weight. It only
weighs 2.7 pounds.

plus,
