[Nfb-krafters-korner] Note taker

 I follow in Ramona's shoes!  I started with the Braille note, went to the M-power and because my braille display died, DORS got me an Apex, last year.  I love it.  
I love having my address book and other imfo at my finger tips!
I have been reading braille since second grade and do not know what I would do with out it!
I was introduced to the braille note by my computer teacher and I like how it has more than one way to do most tasks.
I want a lap top a lot more than I do an eye phone.  My n82 still works well enough.

Just for one more approach:  I use the BrailleNote Apex which I use for reading books, writing everything from minutes to books, knitting patterns, computer instructions, and on and on.  I cannot be without it, even to send it in for servicing.  Unfortunately, it is becoming obsolete.
I watched several people using I phones at the last NFB convention, and they all seemed much less efficient than I am with my BrailleNote.  I keep thinking I should investigate the I phone, but I cannot function without the Braille display, and I am not very good at figuring out this stuff without help, so I am in no hurry.
