BrailleNote and web accessibility

Hi all,

I got a question about BrailleNote, a notetaker device from Humanware. From
the complaint I received, many of these users cannot access websites that
contain table layout and other web technology for some reason. Do we need to
slow down and wait for the BrailleNote technology to catch up before going
on with the Web 2.0 technology? Or should we go move on to newer web
technology? This has been on my mind for quite sometimes and trying to
figure the best direction to take.

With Warm Regards,
