For heaven sake people!

It is just an advisory message so that if your display is blank or your speech is silent for a few seconds you don't instantly think something is wrong.

There are definitely problems with the new release, but trying to make this one of them just doesn't make any sense at all.

Maybe it's time for some on the list to simply get a life.

I'm sure I'll get flack and that's fine since several don't seem to have much else to do anyway.

This list really gets harder and harder to try and monitor. Is it worth the effort?

Don



It's just a message and does not hurt a thing.

Hello

I've done some experimentation and the "please wait" message does not appear when there is no compactflash card inserted. If you turn off with no compactflash card in, when you turn back on the "please wait" message does not appear. However, if you turn off with the card inserted and remove it before turning back on, the "please wait" message appears. So, as Maurice says, it has everything to do with the CF card. It's only a momentary message and you just have to wait a second to start doing whatever, so
nothing to worry about.

Cheers
Kylie

Maurice,

This poarticular situation is not refering to the insertion/removal of cards, instead it is refering to powering on the PK. This is something that
I have noticed as well as other PK users.
1. Turn on PK
2. Hear "Please Wait"
3. A second later hear "Main Menu"

This doesn't seem to occur on the mPowers

List,

Yes, this is the same as previously explained. If you manually take a
card
out you will get the message sequence; "Please Wait", followed by the disk removed announcement. It will depend on when the message suppression
comes
off in relation to the virtual card eject, re-insert sequence as to what
is
actually announced.

Yes. I hope Maurice or Jonathan or someone makes a comment as I'm not
concerned just curious as to why it happens?

Yes, very briefly. I hadn't noticed until you mentioned it, since I
usually
work in Braille alone, though sometimes with speech; so then I checked
the
Braille as the machine came on and turned on speech and there was no
mistaking it.

Perhaps this is because of checks still being carried out on boot-up, as described by Maurice in a recent post. Perhaps he'll make a comment on
this.

Hi all,

WHenever I turn my PK on I get the message:
"please wait"
before it displays main menu.
Is this something unique to the PK? has anyone else noticed this?
If it is part of the uni that is fine.
Thanks.
Scott
