Title: [Using a Braillemate]
A man is walking down his work office hallway, with a Braillemate in
his hand. He is later shown using it at his desk.
[The featured man is speaking]: “I use a Braillemate in two
major ways. One is really as a notepad. It’s my thinking tool;
it’s like jotting and doddling for a seeing person. And the wonderful
thing is that all those jots and doodles that I do on the Braillemate
are electronic, and directable, so that I can send it to other computers
and sighted people can read it. The device is in my hand, oh, three
or four hours a day at work and at home, too, if it comes to that, because
it has everything in it from cooking recipes to my son’s spelling
list.”
