Agrees, I'm a hard and fast gw micro fan. The syncbraille looks a bit stripped down on paper at least to me. I'm recomending the braille connect and the alva bc640, but if you went with sincbraille you wouldn't be disappointed with the quality. I'm surprised it will work with the mac though. It's a bit new isn't it?
