Brenda; The case, when closed, covers the whole machine. The only time the braille keyboard is not covered is when it is in use. The slotts for cables and disks on the back are not covered. I bought a DVD case to cary my BT in and other accessories. You need to take the strap off for it to fit in the case, but I cary it with the chord. Terry Powers

You yourself are the one who is acting as a hermit! Rather than complaining just as you did below, quit acting that way but only be courageous and get a Braille display for yourself and see what we deafblind and hearing/blind know on our own! See I am deafblind who has read Braille for 30 straight years with no problem! Brenda, ask someone to lend you a Braillenote and use it for a year! If you never had a Braille display but say things stated below, how could you rightly claim a Braille display to be problematic?

Why bother with all those Braille display problems? I primarily read emails and books. Why haven't I bought a Braille Display? First of all they sell it to the customer, and it works for a while. Then the dots don't come up because of dust or something. At work we have braille displays, but I've seen this problem. What puzzles me is why a Braille display doesn't have a case or a cover, when those little things are so sensative? Why isn't there a way to clean it? One or two dots should not be a reason to send it back for maintenance. Customers pay a lot more for braille than just voice. I won't buy your Braille Display until you resolve these issues. Can I afford one? Probably when I want to.You'll have to clean up your act before I want to. God help the deaf-blind who are depending on braille displays. >Brenda Mueller >> ----- Original Message ----- >>From: bob <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>To: Braillenote List <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>Date: Fri, 07 May 2004 11:32:03 -0700 >>Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Interesting bookshare situation with Braille Note: >>Jonathan, the book in question, I suspect, is The Collected Short Stories Of Arthur C.

Both the braille note and the voice note have two types of keyboards, a qt (qwerty) and bt (braille).
