[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Affordable braille notetaker

[Tracy Carcione]

Ramona, I haven't found the 20 cells to be a problem.  It's easy to scroll
back and forward, and, if necessary, to move ahead by words or characters.
 I've been using 20-cell notetakers for many years now, so I guess I'm
used to it.
