Hi everyone,
The way it works with me is this. I have a Braille Lite Millennium 40.
That M20 and M40 are the only units with compact flash card ports. They are
fussy about the cards they will take. My drive and cards are Sandisk. One
card is 512mb and the other is 128mb.
I have a Sandisk card reader connected to my computer that is drive E:. I
have various folders on both the computer and drive for certain types of
reading material. News has newspapers. Non and Fiction are
self-explanatory.
On the card itself, I have more folders.
I prefer to use the command prompt to copy onto the compact flash card. In
the case of Bookshare books, I don't unpack them to the CF drive because
apparently, they are Unix files, and the BLT only see a linefeed, not a
carriage return. I solve this problem by putting them into a text editor
and resaving them.
I generally save names to something shorter. The Braille Lites don't like
some of those long Bookshare names.
