Hi  Craig,

Off of the top of my head, I am not aware of a list for note  takers in
general.  So depending on what you want to get out of a  group and if you
have a specific device in mind, here is some info you  might find helpful. 

Freedom scientific had a link off of their site  for a PackMate users group.
It has been years since I've used a PacMate, so  I do not know if it is 
still
in existence.

When GWMicro was selling  the BrailleSense and VoiceSense products, they had
a user's group.   But now that HIMS opened an US office and took back the
sales of their  devices and I am no longer using a voiceSense, I'm not sure
if HIMS started  up a group.  There might be something on their website.

The  BlindPhone Discussion group used to be a good source for the use of
smart  phones.  There have been many discussions on how to use  these
mainstream devices for note takers and more.

When I first  started using Apple products, I belonged to a group  called
PortablePlayers.  I have not seen anything come through from  them in a
while, so I do not know if they are still out there.

If  you are considering any of the Apple products, visit the  AppleVis
website.  There are all types of review of Apps and a variety  of forums to
belong to.  The Apple products offer a lot of  versatility, especially with
all of the new portable braille displays and  input devices on the market.

Depending on what you are looking for in a  note taker, considering a 
Netbook
with your favorite screen reader is  another option.  

Write me off-list and we can arrange to talk  more if your goal is to learn
more about your options.  Say hi to your  other half.

Greetings  to the list.

Would someone please direct me to email lists where  Braille and voice 
output
notetakers are discussed?

Thank  you.

Craig
