DreamWriter T100
I recently was handed a DreamWriter 100 to fix for use by an elementary school class. It looks like this:
I removed the old Ni-Cad rechargeable batteries that were inside of it (I suspect it also has the charging circuitry, so it could recharge batteries inside of it), and put in alkaline AAs. However, a small metal piece had broken off, so I replaced it with a bit of rolled up aluminum foil. It worked: the unit booted, and I typed a test message and opened the files in its memory (yes, it still had stuff in its memory). It’s a very old little computer.
I don’t have the DreamLink software required for it to communicate with a PC or Mac. I have the serial cable, but not the software. Does anyone know where I can get it, online or offline? It would be best if I could download it somehow.
Google…
What exactly is this…. This typing thingy majiggy
I Googled, couldn’t find it. Maybe I should have Yahoo’d, but I’ve already returned the unit, so no purpose now.
You can get the software at http://www.schoolbattery.com/index.php.
Waiting for mine to show up.
Sometimes it is also on ebay, but usually more expensive
Have the software but cannot get it to work; is there something that I am missing.

I have several DreamWriters but have no been able to get files from the DreamWriter to another PC so that I can save or print out. Is there a problems with the DreamLINK software that I should know about?
