I have HumanWare's Brilliant.
Really like the thumb keys on the unit.
Don't care much for the Focus range from FS.
Also the braille feels great with the HumanWare products.

I think the part of it for VR is that the Focus displays are among the
few left that don't have onboard memory or note taking capabilities,
which is an important thing when wanting to use one at work. The Focus
40 Blue is a great choice though for a braille display, but I wish
there could be local repair or some loaner program vailable for when
you depend on it for work to get around querky controls that won't
activate with anything else but a cursor routing button.

I really like FS’s Focus 14 Blue, but I don’t like note-takers so
it suits me perfectly. I hate my old PACMate 20.
I’ve also used a Focus 40 Blue which I also liked. I prefer these
to my Handitech Braillino which only works with my Mac and refuses
to pair with my iPhone.
Cheers,
Anne

What's wrong with Humanware/fs's Braille displays? I've never
seen them so can't give an opinion.

Hi Chris,
It's incredibly nice to see that Apple is doing this at all.
However it looks like the only braille displays they carry our
humanware. In my view, that's a serious limitation, humanware
and freedom scientific being the least interesting braille
displays on the market. No offense to you humanware fans. I
just think it's too bad that they're not carrying Hims products
or Baum products. cheers,
Donna

Maybe I missed this in another thread but you can now buy
braille displays, switch interfaces and eye gaze trackers from
the Apple store:

Selection is kinda thin at the moment but I'm sure they will
keep adding stuff over time.
