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...

                 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,
