Wow! And it even fits in your purse! How cool is that! -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of denise avant Sent: 19 November 2009 03:21 To: [email protected] Subject: [Braillenote] apex
Hello all, Today, I got a chance to see the apex. For those of you who are empower users, you will love it.! It's a little smaller than the Braillenote empower in width, but about the same size in length. It's thickness is like that of the stream. It has three usb ports, so you can plug in all kinds of devices at the same time. It has an sd card reader which will support 32 gig. It has a VVGA port at the back. It has an earphone and microphone jack on the left side of the machine. The record button is like that of the record button on the stream. The Braille on the unit is excellent, as its very crisp and sharp and makes reading extremely comfortable. The size of the unit sort of reminds me of a netbook computer as apex fits easily in my purse which was a medium size purse. The aps on it work the same as the aps on the empower and pk. There is no difference there. It has wireless capabilities - but I didn't get to put that to the test as we didn't have wireless available. It has a port to connect an Ethernet cable. It has Bluetooth and a usb connection port on the side if you want to use the unit as a Braille display. The radio is much better sounding, and picks up stations really easily. I noticed that books, and long documents load a little faster. So for you guys who are putting together the financing, and will have one soon, you will enjoy it, particularly when humanware starts to roll out some additional aps. ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
