Last Notes npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy I was the same. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Yeah it’s chatty. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Nostalgia for the old notetaker days and wanting to play with Linux without having to do a bunch of fiddling around. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy No I don’t know if it does actually yet. I have not heard of that. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Exactly. They are thinking that a version with a Braille displays at least a year or two out, but I’m already saving up. Lol. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy No but your heart and soul and mind will. Lol. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy I bet there’s already one you can install on the desktop. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Is it a big box? Would it fit in a mailbox? npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Oh I’m so excited you got one! npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Oh dear that’s not good. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Good, it’s always good to have a plan. :-) npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Now if you ordered it and paid the full amount on something like your Apple Card, you wouldn’t have to pay it off until next month. Might that be doable for you? npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Meanwhile, if you do pay to upgrade from basic to pro, they let you keep your basic until your pro arrives and then send it back. I think that’s pretty generous. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Yes, I am impressed as well, impressed enough that I ordered one. :-) And of course now some people are complaining because they want to be able to update to pro over the air, and some people don’t like that the pro doesn’t have better hardware, and blah blah blah blah blah. Honestly, if all people ever look for in life or faults, that’s all they will ever find. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Exactly. That’s what I was trying to explain on the mailing list to someone who was upset. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy I think this makes good business sense. They have to invest their limited budget where there is a market. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Nostalgia, and being able to learn Linux on something I didn’t have to fiddle with too much. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy My BT Speak Pro has shipped! It should be here by Monday. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy What is the book? Where can I get it? npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Yeah that’s understandable. I’ll wait for the next one. :-) npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy But now we have to wait right until it’s offered again? I mean we can’t realistically jump in in the middle. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy What to pay later thing? I’m sorry. That’s frustrating for you I’m sure. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy No problem. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy My buyer wanted a video to see that the Mac was in good order. I did my best. I warned him it wasn’t going to be good. Lol. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Dude! I’m going to sell stuff on eBay more often. Yes I did pay a little bit to boost my listing, but the Mac sold in like two hours. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy On my phone. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Oh yeah you should be able to get that. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Here’s the thing guys, yes, a lot of us paid for Voice Dream reader 12 years ago, but that was 12 years ago. Do you really expect that money to be able to sustain future development? Lots of things are moving to subscriptions for a reason. It’s the only way to bring in enough money to sustain future development. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy I don’t personally know anyone, but put it out here and someone will snap it up for the right price. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy I don’t know if this helps, but when I went to check out, Apple Pay was an option, and I had the option to either pay in full, or pay later, which I think breaks it up into a certain number of weekly payments. npub1h7vrv5c79myavdq8kw9eqn73yyznffj8nv37q2cn3xq4eprcs59q92exvk Allison Meloy Someone who looks and sounds a lot like me may have gotten impatient and ordered the BT Speak Pro before my Mac sold. I don’t know who would’ve done such a thing. Lol.
