Greg,

According to my dealer friend, it will take 2, two, SMAs to move you from
the current version of windows cd to the newest one.
PDI's basic whine seems to be that it is going to cost extra money to go to
this new operating system and then you have to have the new keysoft version
6 as well.
Of course, as you say, then you still have to have the newest version of the
mother board to do this in the forst place.

Judging from what Jonathan said about the windows ce upgrade being a
prerequisite for the SDK, it sounds to me that Pulsedata yet again plans to
leave users of the braillenotes with the classic boards in the dust, unless
of course, these users are willing to dish out the outrageous amount of what
... $800 ... to get upgraded to the new motherboard, in order to take
advantage of the SDK, or of software written with it. 

Also, in the past, PDI indicated that they were considering releasing the
SDK for free. Does anyone know if this is still to be the case, or will they
be charging for it? If so, then how much?

Looking at what Sabahattin posted reminds me yet again of one of the reasons
why I'm not actively reading the braillenote list, namely, people don't
bother to trim their replies, and include the whole message thread up to
that point.

Greg
