Maybe! Except I think I would still prefer to take notes on the Braille note. I have managed to use the Book Port to do so but it is way too slow for my mind, I forget where I am, lose my train of thought and spend way too much time thinking about the keys on the Book Port. It will do in a pinch but it will never be my first choice as a note taking device. Give me my computer QWERTY keyboard for that. Actually, I type so much that writing braille at all is slower than it used to be. I recognize errors, but I think noncontracted braille a lot when I am writing, and then get annoyed with myself when I am reading. Spending more than ten hours a day at the computer has its drawbacks. I used to get a Perkins going so fast it jammed.

If you don't know Braille, having a bookport gives you the insentive to learn it so you can take advantage of the notetaker features. Cheers, Dave
