I just got my Apex too and I do like, but have one big complaint. The audio is horrible. My cell phone sounds better then the Apex. They would have been better off leaving the one bigger speaker instead of the two little ones. ----- Original Message ----- From: Alex Hall To: BN List Sent: Saturday, February 06, 2010 12:08 AM Subject: [Braillenote] Apex!!
Hi all, I have been playing with my Apex for the last couple hours, and loving it! There are some bugs, but I will not bother to post them until after we see what ks9.01 fixes. So far, though, I love the quieter keyboard and the faster processor. I can hit i from the main menu and, even if I am not connected when I start, my homepage loads, nothing about "connecting to home... connected to home", just hit enter and it is done. It takes maybe 5 seconds to start bluetooth, and maybe 10 to scan for devices; compare that to the mPower! The processor is definitely faster. I have a random number generator that takes 36 seconds to run on the mPower; the Apex takes 24 seconds to run the same program. I love the scroll wheel, though it can be hard to make sure it clicks into a position. I recorded myself opening the package; I described the unit, then put it through some tests to see what it could do, though no daisy book yet. I will clean up the file and post it; I will let you know when it is done. My main advice: do NOT use Eloquence. It is worse than it was on the mPower, especially when typing.
