New Braille Notetaker From Papenmeier

[Jack]

nope, but they do make pcmcia memory, which you can use in the slot
if not that, then you can use the memory they have for cameras and buy an
adapter that will fit the pcmcia slot.
you can get em in 100 meg sslot.
i think its about $75 for each card with 100megs.
so its not bad
