I have to agree with Cari on this. It is good to have a backup plan and 
different things work for different people. I think even a person's stage in 
life, lifestyle, etc can really affect what they use. I didn't get my 
BrailleNote till about two years ago and have also used my desktop, as well 
as just a notebook with a slate and stylus.
