I will consider myself rebuked John. Most important thing here is that Jenny 
gets the support and knowledge she requires.

Aye Eleanor, caution is definitiely best practice in these cases, as though
chargers might fit a device, different voltage could be the death of them.

There is another company besides Blazie, HumanWare, who may be an
alternative try, but I reckon Mr Godfrey's services are top notch when it
comes to repairs.  And I'd deal with him direct, but maybe NCBI'S good
offices can do that just as efficiently.

I hope, Jenny you will not be too long more without accessing the wonders of
communication through your favourite medium.  Viva Braille!
