Aah yes, college and university; portable stuff then was bigger and heavier and tons of it; needed a big case on wheels, but just had a shoulder bag that stuck out a foot or more off my back and I walked with a stooped shoulder. Braille 'nm Speak, Hagger "Pocket" tape recorder, decktalk synthasiser, AC adapters for each, quite aside from the set books, notes, handouts, and other paper we never got to identify or scan.

Well, I usually carry two iPhones for several reasons. And sometimes I also carry an iPad. And sometimes, I even carry a braille display and/or a bluetooth keyboard. Depends on where I'm going and what I think I might need. Portability is one consideration but not the only consideration. Besides, compared to what I carried around years ago (never mind how many!) in school, all of the above would still be relatively portable. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash! Then God gave me a new heart and life: His joy for my despairing tears! And now, every day: "This I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."
