Please tell me if plugging in your hearing aid works because I was thinking about getting one of those things to plug my hearing aid into earphone jacks! I cannot see why it wouldn't work, but then again, I really don't know. Thanks to all the hearing impaired people for telling me about the clarity of the speech. Is the braille display nice and clear, and how often to dots always stay up or not come up at all? I hate braille displays when the dots do not behave. You lot are very helpful, thank you.
