Re: Mantis case

2020-08-07 Thread 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries
Hi Scott,

I called this morning to place my order, and was told they're back-ordered for 
two weeks. So, not sure when I'll be able to get a unit, but I'll keep you 
posted.

The QBraille was the other display I was looking at, so please let me know how 
it compares to the Mantis. Since this is only kind of Mac related, feel free to 
write me off-list at doniado...@me.com .
Cheers,
Donna

Awesome, Donna. I hope it works out for you! I do not have a Mac here
to test with, so if you can please let us know how that goes for you,
I'd love your feedback. I'm about to start evaluating the qBraille and
again do not have a Mac to test with. I used to go to the local Apple
Store and conduct my tests there, but they're closed.

2020-08-06 Thread Scott Davert
Hi Joe and Donna.
I have not received my case either. My understanding from talking to
Greg Stilson about this is that the case which ships with the Mantis
does not include a cover, but something that you can set the display
in while using it. It's not a carrying case. If you want to carry it
around, you would likely want the EP case. Sorry I do not have an
exact answer, I have not received mine yet.
