Actually, ther is no reason why the bn couldn't have a cd or dvd drive as
long as the operating system supported it. With external USB drives, if
windows ce would support such a drive, we could have it with a USB PCMCIA card.

I have to disagree that the braillenote will never be a pc or a laptop.
Todays new motherboards are getting very small. Sure we won't see a CD/DVD
rom drive but I can't see any reason why we can't have a hard disk, USB
Port, VGA monitor port, and conventional memory. I think for the price we
pay for these machines we should expect laptop functionality and no less!

We can say that the BN family should have been more mainstream, should
have USB, should be better organized, should be perfect. It's still just
a notetaker, it isn't, and never will be, a PC or laptop. There's only
so much room in the machine, and only so much we can afford to
pay. Something had to give somewhere, and not everyone is satisfied with
what we have. It's still a great little machine!

Hello Richard:
In my opinion, hind sight should have been 20-20!! How so? Before the
advent of the BrailleNote, PulseData knew that USB ports were in vogue. The
company should have incorporated them into the BrailleNote from the onset.
However, there is always a reason to charge more, so we'd constantly go to
the drawing boards to re-do all the evaluations again.
Sincerely,
Olusegun
