Hi, Sue. How is your Braille Lite connected to a USB port? I definitely want
more details for that! What did you have to get to make that work? I still
have the serial cable that came with the unit...somewhere! <smile> I'm
assuming you need some kind of adapter besides that. Please explain! <smile>
Take care.

My Braille-Lite is hooked to a USB port, but the drivers that come on a CD
coonvert the USB port to a serial port. You do not put anything into the
Braille-Lite, except for the flashcard, which you take from the compact
flash reader after books are downloaded onto it. I hope I have said this in
a way that makes sense. <smile>

yes, but what do you put into your Braille Lite? Or are you saying this
thumbnail drive has a serial port?
