[nabs-l] ipad verses blindness products

[Chris Nusbaum]

Hi Beth,

Bluetooth is still available on the BrailleNote Apex.  Go to the 
options menu, select connectivity, then bluetooth.

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight.  The 
real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that 
exists.  If a blind person has the proper training and 
opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical 
nuisance."
-- Kenneth Jernigan (President, National Federation of the Blind, 
1968-1986

 The I C.A.N.  Foundation helps blind and visually impaired youth 
in Maryland say "I can," by empowering them through providing 
assistive technology and scholarships to camps and conventions 
which help them be equal with their sighted peers.  For more

I'd justify that the iPad is a cheap option.  The BrailleNote is
hard to repair and neeeds thousands of dollars just to maintain.
I love my BNQT Apex, but let' face it.  It's really expensive.

P.S.  does anyone know what happened to Bluetooth on the
BrailleNote?

Guys, I have a braille 'n speak, but I think it has bit the dust.
I was thinking of getting a braille note, but some one suggested
getting an iPad, or a laptop.  I did some research on the iPad,
and here's what I've found.

Do any of you use iPad's, and if so, who purchased it for you? If
VR purchased it, How do you justify need for an Ipad? Sincerely,
RJ
