The whole board is light and easy to carry and
about the size of an<br>8x11 piece of paper. It is a tiny computer and you can add more RAM- with a<br>memory card. <br> <br> The blind student can take the digital note-taking device to<br>a class where the teacher is very driven by writing on the board. The blind<br>student hands it to a sighted student and she takes notes on it. At the end<br>of class, the sighted student rips off the pages for themself and hands the<br>board back to the blind student. The blind student can then download all the<br>notes onto the computer. In tangent with this is a handwriting recognition<br>tool, which translates the handwriting into digital text that talking<br>software can read. Note taking made easy.<br> <br> This is the one I have been using and as long as the<br>handwritten notes are legible, the pad can read it to
the computer.
