Hi!
No you???re right about that.
The brailliant is a display only not a notetaker.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like my Humanware Braille Bi 40 has
storage. It doesn't accept SD cards as far as I can tell. (Nothing in the
manual indicates that it can, but i could be wrong.) I'll keep snooping
around, though. Thanks!

   If your braille display has storage (SD card etc), you can download
the brf formatted books and transfer them to the display's storage and read
them directly that way.

Thanks, but I'm looking for a solution that would work for mobile as I
don't like to read books at my computer. (Bookshare's website offers a
download file specifically for refreshable braille reader, but as I
mentioned, I hate being stuck at my computer for leisure reading.)

Thanks for the idea of VoiceDream, though. I'll have to investigate that.

    Hi all,

    I'm pretty new to the refreshable braille reader and the
    associated technology in general, so please bear with me. I'm
    probably goofing something up.

    I have a Humanware Brailliant Bi 40 and I have a Bookshare
    membership. I want to read the books in braille as I am hearing
    impaired, so I hate listening to books. I'm using the Bookshare
    Read2Go app, but I find the app clunky and difficult to use on the
    braille display. For example, some pretty basic commands, such as
    "scroll page down" doesn't work with the Brailliant.

    I know I can download a file specialized for refreshable braille
    readers on the website, but I prefer to read away from my desktop.

    Has anyone found a good way to use Bookshare with a refreshable
    braille reader? Or am I missing some tips?

    Any help would be enormously appreciated!  Thanks.

    Best,
    Cristina
