Hi Carol,

You probably didn't invest enough time into learning the Esys <Smile>.  They
are a great device.

All the best

Steve

Thanks Steve.  I've seen the Esys and Humanware's Connect.  The manual of 
the Esys just finished me, though the thought of being able to keep a 
document in the display was good.  The Braille Connect seemed OK but the 
spacebars were too much on the edge of the display (to save space) which 
meant a slow-down in writing ...

Perhaps I'll just go on wishing ... but thanks for the list.
