I hear you, Angie, especially about the vet's office and other noisy =
areas.--Grin! Since audio memo recording is already available, I see no =
reason it would be taken away from those who use it. An alternative to =
having both features incorporated at the same time would be to have a =
setting which allowed one to record either in Braille or audibly. =
However, since a lot of the coding has already been done for Braille =
input, I wonder how complicated it would actually be to record Braille =
memos.

Thanks, Sara! This is how I feel about braille input. It's serendipitous =
that the Bookport has keys that can be arranged in the braille shape. =
Why shouldn't we=20
take advantage of that? I'm not saying this should become the primary =
function of the machine, but I'd love to see that functionality =
expanded. This would also=20
help when you have to take down numbers in vary noisy situations, like a =
vet's office. <grin>
