- i just found out something. my telebraille unit, which looks like
- versabraille minus the tape compartment'-it uses rom, not external
- software, can be interfaced to an ibm pc, which i dont have but my
- nephew offered to build. the tb must be connected to an ibm and then you
- use special software to getbothuni6s talking and make the 300 baumodem
- work on bbs's! so thats thestory. however, anthis angers me, the
- softwarepackge would cost $1000 from telesensory systems in ca and of
- course i dont have thq. so we are stuck! buti refuse to giveup and i
- encourage my friend to continue helpiog me. so we have to find funding.
- wouldnt it be neat if i coulduse the telebraille to acce/s software
- from bbs's! i sure am faced with a challenge but i knew i must do it--my
- vb itself is ge>ting unreliable--i broke 4 times since sept.
