[nfbwatlk] [Wcb-l] Braille Sense Plus, update warning

[Mike Freeman]

As a follow-up, I was able to successfully install the NLS authorization key
and restore my files without difficulty. Guess HIMS either fixed the problem
or I dodged a bullet.

Becky:

I have not encountered this problem. I updated my BrailleSensePLUS after
saving everything to external SD cards and a USB thumb drive. I reformatted
Flash so as to set up the system for the NLS keys. Then I transferred my
files back (including email) and had no trouble reading everything. I'm not
saying the warning below is false; I merely observe that I did not encounter
it. I updated my BSP yesterday.
