I am a braille user. However, I agree. Keep it simple. Let us record memos, nothing more.

If in fact APH decides to incorporate the typing in Braille memo's, is the current method still going to be available? =20 =20 I don't read Braille, I have no desire to learn it at this time and think the typing in Braille will make the BP less quick and easy to use. Example; your walking down a large room, someone you know stops you and says hello. Well, you want their phone number or address. What are you going to do? first, you will have to go find a flat surface to type on, then situate your BP on the flat surface. then start typing. =20 =20 Well, personally, I would rather push a button record my memo and then push a button again to finish the memo. standing there, not having to use two hands to type the message, one holding the BP and the other typing the keys to create the memo. =20 =20 Well, I don't really care if they add it or not but I do hope they keep the current method as well. =20 Dave =20 =20 Dave Cunningham (412) 257-8153 Home (412) 215-4597 Cell dcj638586@xxxxxxxxxxx Email address used for MSN. =20 All incoming and outgoing email scanned by Norton Anti-virus 2004
