I see nothing on that site about Braille at all. Could you provide a
bit more detail?

There is another Braille embosser which works with the Mac and it
does not use any kind of drivers. You just plug in your USB port
and it’s ready to print. More information can be found at
www.siteandsound.co.uk <http://www.siteandsound.co.uk/> and they
ship internationally. I did send a message about it before and
it’s in the archives.

interpoint models that will work via Bluetooth?
Anders mentioned Index. Are there others? Thanks.
