I would suggest that there are probably many people who use the BookPort who do
not know Computer Braille. For that reason I would recommend that the
notetaker should at least allow taking notes in Grade 1 literary Braille so
that the expected symbols such as dot 6 for capitol, dots 2, 5, 6 used for
period,would be used. Grade 2 would be nice, but if memory is an issue then I
would hope that at least Grade 1 could be accomplished.

: Which doesn't mean that the note taking function can't be improved. As
: Larry said, let the suggestions be made. If we ask, and the APH team thinks
: it can be done, then it probably will be done.
