[Tracy Carcione]

Sorry, you're quite right.  I use 3x5 index cards.  Don't know what I was thinking yesterday.

Does the Janus slate come in different sizes? I thought it only came in a size suitable for 3 by 5 index cards. That's the one I have ... somewhere. It's grown legs and toddled off somewhere. I really need to get one of those plastic shoe boxes and put all my Braille labeling stuff and WayTags into it. :) 


Thanks,
Ari
