[nabs-l] connecting to the internet service on a braille note

[Ashley Bramlett]

oh good, so if the website has a text only or  mobile version, it will work 
fairly well.
Do you find that you can fill out forms with it?

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.
