>GW Micro and HIMS introduced the Braille Sense three years ago at 
>the CSUN conference and this year we have another important 
>announcement for this terrific product.
>
>It has been a year since we released version 4.0 of the Braille 
>Sense firmware. Since January 2007, everyone has had a chance to 
>enjoy all the benefits of the 4.0 firmware for this feature-packed 
>note taker. As always, we are constantly working to bring you a 
>stable product, and the Braille Sense is no different.
>
>At last! Version 5.0 of the Braille Sense firmware is released and 
>available for download. This new version provides several 
>improvements and enhancements over the 4.0 firmware.
>
>This upgrade provides two important changes.  One is that the 
>operating system has been upgraded from WinCE 4.0 to WinCE 5.0.  The 
>second is support for our popular GPS navigation utility, GW Sense Navigation.
>
>With the inclusion of WinCE 5.0, you can now take advantage of the 
>latest Wi-Fi standard, 802.11g.  Please understand if you purchased 
>a CF Wi-Fi card in the past it may have to be replaced to use this 
>latest standard or new encryption options.  Contact our support department,
>support at gwmicro.com for further clarification.
>
>GW Sense Navigation, or SenseNav for short, is the latest 
>way-finding product that many people have enjoyed with the Voice 
>Sense.  Now Braille Sense users have that option too. If you are 
>interested, please keep in mind you will need to purchase a new, USB 
>Bluetooth adapter and the SenseNav product from GW Micro, 
>sales at gwmicro.com or your local dealer.
>
>The best way to upgrade to this new firmware is by using the online 
>update from the Braille Sense by pressing U twice from the main 
>menu. Then choosing the Upgrade Online option. The Braille Sense 
>will require an active wireless or LAN Internet connection in order 
>for the online upgrade to work. If you do not wish to use the online 
>upgrade, you can upgrade the firmware by using the Offline option. 
>To do this, you will need to download the firmware from our web site.
>
>You can download any available firmware files from the Braille Sense 
>downloads section of our web site. The direct URL for it is 
>http://www.gwmicro.com/Braille_Sense. Here you will find a link to 
>the new 5.0 firmware. When you choose this firmware link, you will 
>see a link to the change log file, which lists all the changes made 
>since version 4.0.
>
>If you have any questions, please give our technical support 
>department a call at 260-489-3671 or send us E-mail at support at gwmicro.com.
