[nabs-l] The technology in specialized notetakers

[justin williams]

The braille display is a very good accompaniment to the pc.  I also use a
pearl and a victor reader streem.  Keep in mind, one of the notetakers best
features is its size; it is infantly more portable.

HI all,
I used to heavily rely on my Braille Note but have found for me using my
computer during classes has been more productive. Is there a reason why the
technology in blindness devices seems to lag behind mainstream technology?
For instance, reading docx files has just come to the Apex this summer.
I'm not at all unappreciative of the tools I have at my disposal, however I
wonder why there isn't more of a push within the blindness community to
modernize some of our tech choices faster.

What devices have you found help you be a productive student?
