Hi Kristi I can't say that I have a strong opinion yet, but I have for sometime been in research mode as regard to braille displays. When the national Federation of the blind came to Dallas this past summer, I went to exhibits. I have a focus 40, and I was thinking about replacing it with a Bluetooth braille display. This is so I can use both the iPhone and my Mac. I believe I have now, after looking at several displays, decided to more carefully Investigate one called the braille edge. It is new among those supported by Mountain lion and iOS devices. However, it also can be used as a stand alone unit. The price is the same as the focus 40. Unfortunately, I doubt if anyone can tell me much yet about this display, because it's so new to voiceover. I have been having a very irritating problem with my focus 40, and I hope it has improved since this newest update. The problem that I have with the focus 40 is that my Mac doesn't seem to receive keystrokes accurately all the time. I think it has something to do with the speed of my brailling on the keyboard. I have reported this, but not yet gotten it to work exactly right. Gigi
