[nabs-l] Notetaker Reviews

[Beth]

I would not always recommend the BrailleNote if you want something
that doesn't break every year.  I hate having to ship it out to NEw
York now instead of California;.  Also now they do all the repair work
in either Canada or New Zealand.  Pretty stupid to me honestly.  I've
never used anything else though.  I think the PacMate is a bit
frustrating with the whizz wheels and all that.  The blinking cursor
seemed a bit weird to me.  I've never seen a Braille Sense.  So I
think I'd stick with my BrailleNote even though I still have problems
with it breaking because the positives outweigh the negatives.
