The cost is steep, especially if you are like me and now have two braille notes, but it became a necessity. First, after pricing several displays that I might be able to use at work it seems that I'd get the most bang for my buck by getting a second unit, and now, of course, the up side is that my original, a unit that has been used every day of its life with me since January 23, 2001 and was indispensable can now go for a much needed cleaning and upgrade, it is working just fine, but has never had these things done because I just could not have been without it for many days.
In the end, since I wanted a braille display for my office computer and the organization I work for isn't willing to provide more than speech, we figured that getting a BN 32-cell was the best option, it is mine, I have paid for them both, once by using my Discover Card at an exorbitantant rate of interest and this time because my husband planned it into a home equity line of credit we are using to pay off other high-interest cards. Yes, the cost is high, but, to me it is the best thing going, more usable than a plain display would be. , I have no regrets about owing my soul to the technology store!

I feel calmer about it now. I love using my Braille note and would not really swap it I just felt a bit angry that it cost so much last year and then I have got another quite large amount of money to find to upgrade it. But as I said I have calmed down now...until the next time.
