Hi all, HumanWare maintains a list of compatible devices and accessories for the BrailleNote family of products and updates the list often. There are separate lists for the mPower, PK, and classic models, and the most current lists can be found at the following url: http://humanware.com/solutions/faq_braillenote.asp Regards,
