Hello E.T., To be honest, I did not determine the generation name of the display model of the Focus. I simply told them that I wanted to take a look at the most recent version of the Focus 40.
I did not see any HandyTech displays but, then again, I did not look for any HandyTech products. While I went to virtually all of the blindness related booths, Humanware, Hims, and Freedom Scientific were the vendors to which I paid the most attention.

I Don't think so Mark. Was this a Focus 5th or a new version? I like the 5th but its not being developed enough, it has some minor annoyances. Were there any displays from HandyTech?
