Dear Kevin,

I've never seen one of those full-page slates, but it makes sense.  Sighted 
people write line after line without pausing to change the paper every four 
lines, so why should we?

As to the board slate, I like them because you don't need a solid surface to 
write on.  APH still sells them, but they're quite expensive.

I learned to use the slat when I was 11 years old at the California Braille 
Jail and I was forced to stop using the board slate and use a pocket slate 
instead.
