>The Accessible World in partnership with Talking Communities is 
>proud to sponsor Part Two of the comparison between two popular 
>notetakers during the Tek Talk online event Monday, May 7, 
>2007.  Last week the features of Freedom Scientifics' Pac Mate were 
>reviewed in detail.  This week discussion will focus on the 
>HumanWare's BrailleNote mPower.
>   Since its introduction seven years ago the BrailleNote has lead 
> the way with efficient, personal productivity tools.  The 
> BrailleNote mPower continues to be a leading notetaker with its 
> powerful word processor, expanded flash disk memory, built-in blue 
> tooth, digital audio recorder, USB ports, and secure digital media 
> card slot.  This presentation will provide an overview of KeySoft 
> 7.2, a reliable productivity suite of applications and expanded 
> features including a Database Manager, DAISY Book Reader, audio 
> streaming and new KeySoft extensions such as the Concise Oxford 
> Dictionary and Thesaurus and Nemeth Tutorial.  Mike Gibson will 
> highlight the intuitive context sensitive help system and user 
> friendly interface within the KeySoft environment, which makes for 
> an efficient and productive experience.
>   Following the presentations, there will be sufficient time for 
> questions and comments from the audience.  So, tell all your 
> friends to join you.  Seating is unlimited.
