Ashley,
Sorry for the double post, but it seems that I didn't read your message carefully enough the first time around. Yes, stick with text only sites, mobile sites, or… If you have to do other things with it, be prepared for really slow Loading And lots of confusion. But, on text only or mobile sites, it generally navigates around just fine.

>> What has been your experience connecting wirelessly? I guess I will call humanware to inquire how to set it up because I do not know which wireless card I need. I read the user manual, but its not too specific. How was the setup process? Was it easy once you got the wireless card? To connect to a wireless router, do you simply go to connectivity under options menu and choose the wireless ethernet option and then it scans for a spot? I’m thinking this is beneficial in wi-fi hotspot areas such as cafes, Starbucks and hotels.
>> Also, which websites work best on a braille note? I imagine it cannot handle sites with lots of graphics and frames. Will it handle text based sites best? Some sites offer a text only site and I would think it would work better on a text site or mobile site.
>> Thanks for any feedback!
