hi there yes well i use the apex and the braille sense plus and here in the uk we are far behind with the software on the sense esesially the gps. why we have to have diferent sofware's i don't know it is much better like the apex if bookshare is on it for example here in the uk we just cannot use it. i much proffer to use usa computer braille anyway i think the software is being held back due to some braille difficulties but if things do not move on people will buy a braille display and use it with say the i-phone which is a shame as the braille sense plus is a great product. i had to reformat my flash disk a while back which had to be done because the sense would not recognise the sd card. i just hope they solve the sofware over here in the uk and it would be nice to be able to use the sense as a braille display with my i-phone.
