Chris And Listers, It is not just the Braillenote manual that is confusing. The file manager is by far the most confusing feature to use on the Braillenote. Negotiating file structures in Windos, UNIX, Linux, and DOS is a breeze compared to that in the Braillenote. When I need to perform file maintenance, I open an Active Sync session between the Braillenote and my PC and perform that file maintenance on the PC side.
I hope to see a functional file manager in an upcoming release of Keysoft.

If this seems needlessly complicated to you, it does to me also. One layer in, they're called folders; but two or more layers in, and they suddenly become directories, only accessible by switching to "directory mode" by pressing space with t. Also, somewhere in this section of the manual, an instruction says to press the "left arrow". I assume this was missed during the editing process, and means to hit backspace. I think PulseData should decide whether to call these things folders or directories exclusively, and keep it simple, as it is on a Windows-based PC. The last thing we need is an implied dycotomy between simple users and folders, and the world of more complex directory structures for the "power users".
