[senco-forum] Alphasmarts

Couldn't agree more - use my Neo to make my visit notes and decant these notes when I can get to my desk top! Sadly they are rarely any use to VI learners because of the small screen aperture and the print/screen contrast!

  Alphasmarts are ideal for education, but beware there are three models the 
name alphasmart refers to the company. The models are the 3000 now becoming out 
of date, the Dana which is basicaly a PDA with a keyboard and the Neo this 
is by far the best of all the range and more suited for schools and out of 
office use (I use one when I travel around the UK) if you go to alphasmart.co.uk 
you will find a list of educational suppliers thoughout the UK basic cost
