Hi Robert, Your points make sense to me. Again, I'm not advocating a change, since I'm becoming accustomed to the way it is. So probably I shouldn't even have brought it up. <grin> But it seemed to me that this might have been a good way to design the keyboard. I plan on using this feature a lot in meetings. Sometimes, I think my BrailleNote is too noisy, and I feel selfconscious with it. I type pretty fast, so it clatters away all the time. I now finally have a pocket-sized note-taker with really quiet keys! ------------------- > Hi All, > > I must confess that I have other note taking devices so was only moderately > excited about this being added to the Book Port.
