Hi, have requested a simple accounting (banking) program since 2001 and a Daisy reader since end 2003. The latter might materialize with the recent merger I hope. It would be of particular use to students.
As previously stated though, BrailleNote now has become a functional tool as opposed to just a note taker; particularly GPS and web access. If a Daisy reader is in the pipeline, might one be given an approximate release date? Deon At 02:27 04/26/2005, you wrote: >Hey! >Okay, I was thinking again, yes, bad sign.
