Hi,
Well, I intended to go back through the magterial a few days ago, but
I've had other things on my plate. As a result, the project slipped
my mind. I really have not forgotten.
I think I'd better be a bit more careful about the promises I make in
terms of when...

Subject: Re: The New Brailliant and Window-eyes
Hi, all,
I've seen this new Brilliant and thee was a presentation about it at
the NFB convention. I did record it, so I will hve to back through
it to note what they said. It will have the thumb keys and other
controls, and I believe that you will be able to control the
computer with it. It is slim like the Apex and uses the same Braille
display. I can't remember more at the moment. There is also a
presentation about it on one of the tech Web sites. I'm not sure if
it has already occurred or will soon, and I have deleted that announcement.
I'll try to have a few notes tomorrow.

Hum, Well since they aren't shipping for two months or
more, it's hardly surprising that no one is giving out
information. It would be surprising if they have it to give. I
haven't even seen a press release from humanware.
I suspect though that you will not be able to input text at
all with the brailliant. The current model does not have a braille
input keyboard, which is the main distinguishing feature between it
and the braille connect line of humanware displays. That makes me
suspect with out having seen any information what-so-ever on a new
brailliant, that it wouldn't matter what windoe-eyes does. You
won't be able to input braille because that's not the way the
hardware is designed.
Best,
