HumanWare Launches the BrailleNote Apex - Shipping December
1st, 2009
Longueuil, November 11, 2009 -- HumanWare has launched the
BrailleNote Apex,
the thinnest and lightest notetaker especially for
professionals and
students who are blind.
Powerful and sleek at just 2 cm (0.78") thick and weighing
only 812 grams
(1.8 lbs), the BrailleNote Apex is designed for portability
and
functionality. Intelligent ergonomics have always been the
benchmark of
HumanWare products, and the BrailleNote Apex performs with
comfort and
agility. A comfortable full-size Braille keyboard makes
notetaking quick and
easy, while HumanWare's signature thumb keys make extensive
reading
effortless.

"As a proud supporter of Braille literacy, HumanWare is
committed to
developing products that help blind people to fully
participate in the
quickly evolving, digital world around them. Because we
believe that
communication is the key to success, we strive to put every
opportunity in
the hands of our customers with Braille products that meet
their needs every
day. The BrailleNote Apex puts the power of digital
communication at
everyone's fingertips," says Gilles Pepin, CEO of HumanWare.
Added horsepower and multiple storage options define the
BrailleNote Apex's
productivity with its 8 GB of internal memory and support
for high capacity
SDHC cards, along with 4 high-speed USB 2.0 ports, built-in
Wi-Fi, Ethernet
and Bluetooth.
The advanced technology is driven by the new Windows CE 6.0
operating system
which enables the expansion of KeySoft, a comprehensive,
user-friendly suite
of productivity applications with feature-rich content that
is 100%
accessible. This powerful software combination will
facilitate future
enhancements and ongoing improvements in response to user
requests.
Almost ten years after the introduction of the BrailleNote,
the
revolutionary BrailleNote Apex is the ninth notetaking
device in a line of
products that has been helping people who are blind to be a
vital part of
the global information age since 2000.
