Mary, I totally agree with you. I will never give up my Apex; when I want braille, I gotta have braille. When I am calling the roster of all ACB affiliates at convention and being given delegate names on the fly, I gotta be fast and furious. Also, when delegates change, I have to be quick about making the change or I'd hold up the entire convention. It's about what is going to work the most effectively for the situation I'm confronting.

You like to write using a braille keyboard and you don't want to mess with two devices, e.g. the Air and a display. You want gps, which you can't get with a Macbook Air. and number 3, the blindness notetaker such as the Apex voicenote or voicesense is still smaller and has better battery life than the Air. Oh, and reading books from blindness-oriented places like bookshare or RFB&D is less of a hassle with a notetaker. Surely, as somebody who paid a premium for an unlicked IPhone, you will admit that some decisions are not made based on strictly dollars and cents basis.
