Hi, Have you tried Bluetooth embossing method? Try a Bluetooth to parallel adapter and try Blueooth as the embossing method (if BS supports it). Cheers, Joseph P.S. What we cannot do now, we can try alternatives... And that's the beauty of experiments.

I too hope we will see improvements in the sense Products and I am afraid more and more of us are going to need to bring these little things out before changes come to place and of course another company is involved other than GW Micro. I don't feel you have been unreasonable! For now, I too will do without my VS, my $350 netbook works fine and it will do for now! Even my Enabling embossor is out of date when it comes to interfacing, so I'm out of luck when it comes to brailling! The braille displays are making better advances so I think the future of braille will be in mass produced braille displays which can plug in without drivers and work bluetooth with various devices, maybe our sense products at some point way down the road. Perhaps I'll need to be content to get out of my embossor what I can since it is 13 years old! Oh well! So goes life! Thanks for writing as usual and keep up the good fight! I'll do my best! I still like sense products better than Humanware products and I too have faulty braille displays on all of my Humanware notetakers and they no longer support them so what to do? More stuff for the junk heep I guess! Take care and thanks for writing!
