Hello Katie,
The big difference between the two is that one cannot print or emboss
documents with a PK. You would need to export documents to a PC so they
could be printed or embossed. Luckily, this can be done through a wireless
network or active sync as well as storage cards. The PK is a sweet
machine! It is a nice small size. If you already have an older braille
note, I would think it could be used for your printing and embossing and
the PK could be used for everything else! I would say this is the main
thing to keep in mind.

I just spoke to my state's rehab couneslor, and she informed me she may
buy me a new BrailleNote, VS. spending about $3000 to get mine
upgraded. However, I am interested in having her explore the PK at this
time as well, if we're looking into getting something new.
I am wondering if their is anything note worthy I could mention to compare
the two products. I'm going to write her an email mentioning the PK, and
I'd like to compare it to the BN personally, as well as for her, to see as
to which one may be purchased.
Here's my situation. I am currently a college student. I am fortunate in
that my campus does have a large wireless internet connectivity
range. Virtually every building on campus has wireless on one floor or
another of it.
So, here's basically what I'm interested in knowing:
Being that I am in college, would one suggest I look more into the BN or a
PK, and why/why not?
I'm sorry this is so long, but I do want to provide her with information
(even pricing if possible) as to what do consider as to my wants/needs too.
Thank you very much!
Katie
