Hi Jim, if I understand you correctly you are looking for a way for your wife 
to create a printed braille letter (or short memo) to you without having to 
know any Braille. The good news is that this is entirely possible. The bad news 
is that it often requires a second mortage. To make the actual output on paper 
will require a Braille embosser. A used Braille blazer will probably be 
cheapest. Now to write the letter there a few choices. Your wife could write it 
on the computer and translate it to Braille using something like the software 
from Duxbury Systems. Or if she doesn't like computers you can always get her 
one of those note takers that have a QWERTY keyboard and emboss directly from 
there. These suggestions will both work but it is a pretty exspensive 
proposition just to leave you a note to put the roast in the oven at 5PM. You 
could always try puttingon the sad puppy dog eyes and saying "honey if you 
really loved me you would learn some Braille"; but don't sue me if y
 ou end up on the couch for a few weeks.

.Good morning Chris,
.Jim here,
.First of all, thanks for the link on CDEX. all worked perfectly. I posted 
.what I am going to ask you to the blindtech list, but I thought I might get 
.a better answer from you. Sometimes that list gets pretty snippy with you if 
.you think the question is dumb. Anyway here it is. Is there a product with a 
.qwerty keyboard that you can use to write Braille with? My wife is sighted 
.and doesn't know Braille. If she wanted to write me a note or something, she 
.could with something like that> So if there is such a product what is it and 
.approximate cost  of it please.
.Thanks.
.Jim
