Hi Donna.
Yes, I got the same news on the VarioUltra list that Baum USA would be closing 
this afternoon. Very sad news for sure. 😞 The VarioUltra has been one of the 
best and most reliable braille displays I have ever used. I use it all the time 
at work and it's great with my iPhone too. Now I'm wondering what will happen 
if this display will still be supported in the future? Guess we'll have to wait 
and find out.
Thanks for posting this.
Katie
