Hi I was just recently told that the bn cannot work with ftp files. have you found a way to work around this and what is it? ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, April 02, 2004 8:25 AM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Another idea for future upgrades:
> Hi, folks: At the risk of sounding like an old fuddy-duddy, (though, in fact, that's precisely what I am), I want to ask a question, and make a comment. Fin, the question: What the heck is wrong with the "file manager" menu? It seems to me that it does exactly what it was designed to do--sort, move, rename, erase and list your files. If you want to open a file, you need only go to the folder, and do so. > Now, my comment: I've read some interesting ideas for future upgrades, but here's the point. Anything that goes into an upgrade should be something which will make the equipment more efficient, and serve more purposes. Therefore, I really don't see how being able to listen to music in the background is that useful. Fun; yes; useful, no! Also, as people keep reminding folks, this is not a laptop, or a full-service PC.; it is a BrailleNote! It's an amazing unit, for what it is, but it is, in fact, a notetaker. Any improvements should probably be made in memory capacity, or, perhaps, enlarging the capacity of the web browser, or, perhaps, making it easier to download FTP files, or frame-dependent documents. Even so, if none of those things happen, it's still a great unit. I say this: don't wish for too many extraneous bells and whistles, as you might have to sacrifice a more useful function. > Well, that's it for me; the old fuddy-duddy's leaving now.
