Maestro

Maestro

Your world in the palm of your hand.

The smallest, lightest, most portable solution for note taking at the lowest price.

Manage your appointments, contact list and tasks, take text notes with a standard or Braille keyboard, record voice memos, consult and edit documents, read books, manage your e-mails, listen to music, and soon, surf the Web — all in the palm of your hand.

Flexibility and state-of-the-art connectivity.

Maestro offers you unparalleled portability and the convenience of advanced wireless technology. You can use the infrared and Bluetooth technologies of the PDA to communicate with peripherals without the hassle of cumbersome wires and adapters. For example, you can take notes directly with the integrated tactile keyboard or with an external Braille or QWERTY keyboard (in computer Braille or grade 2).

Using the Wi-Fi capability, you can access web sites at high speed, or get your e-mail when you are on the go. You can easily transfer and synchronize files between your Maestro and PC. Maestro's flexible environment also allows you to add other applications, like the Trekker GPS orientation system .
