Yes, I agree here, Terri. I have used the Bookworm, and eight cells simply didn't cut it, especially since the company was charging $1795 for the unit. When I used one, its file transfer program was a Dos application, which might not even run should you have an XP machine.

I'd go nuts! The Bookworm only has 8 cells, right? I'd want at least 18 cells on my display, 32 cells is perfect. 40-cell displays are great, too, but you have to use them with a PC. BTW, I use my older BN as a braille display connected to my Windows PC. I can read a dxb or brf document quite easily and it's marvelous! I know people can use DBT with speech, but that would drive me nuts! I guess you're a shark man, but the glasses supports the BN so marvelously! It wouldn't surprise me if the nex version didn't support PDI's Brailliant, too. Terri Pannett, Amateur Radio call sign KF6CA.
