Hi Josh and list,
As I stated previously, when I took my BN on my trip, the Email worked
flawlessly! I always freed the database space before I downloaded any more
Email. Now that I'm home, I'm using my BN to download the Email from my
friend's account. She gets over a hundred posts a day. The BN is slow to
send messages to the trash at first but then I noticed if I send the first
ten to 20 messages to the trash, then remove those from the trash folder or
should I say empty trash of those twenty messages, the rest of the posts
tend to go to trash so much more quickly. You might try emptying the trash
after the first 10 or 20 posts and see whether your BN, VN may function
much more quickly! This seems to be consistent with my unit thus far.
I have been downloading Email, serfing the web, and reading web braille
with my BN. Reading Web Braille couldn't be easier! I do enjoy being able
to download Email from most anywhere with my BN and wireless phone!
Do take care!

one more thing. I saw some demos of the pacmate on various acb radio shows,
and no-where did they mention instant help on demand. Plus pacmate comes
with extra stuff you don't really need such as games like solitaire and
minesweeper. guess the people at pulsedata took that stuff out of their
version of windows ce.
I do want wireless support though. and maybe at least a 200megahertz
processor because deleting email is a bit slow and I get at least 150 or
more messages per day. but hey, when I'm at home I have all the time in the
world to go through mail cause I'm a college student and have nothing else
to do but surf the web on my bn and do the email thing. And if there's an
html email no problem, I save it and open it in keyweb then delete the file
when done with it. I remember back in the days of dos operating system,
keysoft made dos easier to use too! I had a stand-alone keynote back then
with a laptop. And I can definately tell that this keysoft is made for
windows cause you couldn't press alt or read tab in the dos version of
keysoft 1.33F and switch programs. that was a no no in dos!
