I believe we are all speaking about 40 cells. -----Original Message----- From: Traci [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, November 04, 2010 6:24 AM To: gwInfo Subject: Re: Focus blue Braille display
I'm very interested in this topic. What size of braille display are you guys mostly talking about? Vaughan, could you tell us more about the displays you have seen or used? One I've been looking at is from American Printing House. I believe it has 18-cells, which may not be great for everyday computing, but it just may fit all my portable needs. Oh and it is rather affordable at $1700. Look forward to this topic continuing, Traci ----- Original Message ----- From: "Baracco, Andrew W" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, November 04, 2010 8:22 AM Subject: RE: Focus blue Braille display The Focus works well with WE, but you get what you pay for. I have had a recurring problem with cells going bad. I really like the many features of the Focus, but would not buy another one.

I'm wondering if anyone has had luck with it and window-eyes? It would be great to write in grade two braille but I'm not sure if there is a translation table. To upgrade the version of jfw that I do have would be too costly on top of the braille display's price. If there is something comprable, I'm open to suggestions but I really haven't found much that's at least a grand or two more than FS is asking. I've been a diehard WE user since v2.0 and I don't really want to learn jfw just to use a braille display. So, any help and/or advice is welcome on this topic. thanks, -- Dave C.
