HumanWare Launches the BrailleNote Apex - Shipping December 1st, 2009

Longueuil, November 11, 2009 -- HumanWare has
launched the BrailleNote Apex, the thinnest and
lightest notetaker especially for professionals and students who are blind.

Powerful and sleek at just 2 cm (0.78") thick and
weighing only 812 grams (1.8 lbs), the
BrailleNote Apex is designed for portability and
functionality. Intelligent ergonomics have always
been the benchmark of HumanWare products, and the
BrailleNote Apex performs with comfort and
agility. A comfortable full-size Braille keyboard
makes notetaking quick and easy, while
HumanWare's signature thumb keys make extensive reading effortless.

"As a proud supporter of Braille literacy,
HumanWare is committed to developing products
that help blind people to fully participate in
the quickly evolving, digital world around them.
Because we believe that communication is the key
to success, we strive to put every opportunity in
the hands of our customers with Braille products
that meet their needs every day. The BrailleNote
Apex puts the power of digital communication at
everyone's fingertips," says Gilles Pepin, CEO of HumanWare.

Added horsepower and multiple storage options
define the BrailleNote Apex's productivity with
its 8 GB of internal memory and support for high
capacity SDHC cards, along with 4 high-speed USB
2.0 ports, built-in Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth.

The advanced technology is driven by the new
Windows CE 6.0 operating system which enables the
expansion of KeySoft, a comprehensive,
user-friendly suite of productivity applications
with feature-rich content that is 100%
accessible. This powerful software combination
will facilitate future enhancements and ongoing
improvements in response to user requests.

Almost ten years after the introduction of the
BrailleNote, the revolutionary BrailleNote Apex
is the ninth notetaking device in a line of
products that has been helping people who are
blind to be a vital part of the global information age since 2000.
