Hi Mary.
The manual can be accessed by pressing the help key on the Icon. Once in the
manual press the pound key on the number keypad to bring up the table of
contents.

Good morning list,
 
Well, you experienced folks won't think this is such a big deal, but as a
new user, I have just gotten wireless to work. I found it works best with an
un-encrypted open connection (yes, I know the hazards, but for now, i've
only got one access point turned on and the only thing accessing it is the
braille+.) At any rate, I just managed to synch the time and date on the
Internet. It's no big thing to all of you experienced users out there, but
when it worked, it dawned on me how truly amazing this thing is! It's such a
little thing, and I know the Icon is even smaller, but it went out to the
Internet, and just think, only a few years ago, you had to have a lap top to
do what this thing just did. 
 
Next step: I plan to get the podcast feeds .opml file into the machine and
start grabbing podcasts.
 
So, all you new users out there, take heart! Just start at the top of the
manual (it's in an HTML file in the mobile manager folder under programs, in
Windows; I think it's also on the braille+ itself.)
 
Catching the bug!!!! and enjoying it!!!!! You were right, Robert Carter--I
am starting to love this thing!,
 
Mary
