Hi again Kait. If they did not allow you to see the Brailliant BI, it has expanded quite a bit. There are now thumb kieys on the front, braille input keys, and it will of course connect to iDevices. however, I will say that I do not like the design of the input keyboard, as the spacebars, yes

Re: Seeking Feedback on Using Braille Displays with the Kindle App

Hello Christina. I echo Annie's thoughts. Also, I noticed with some magazine content that sometimes, when pressing space with o to turn pages, the display does not advance. However, pressing it a second time will move you forward 2 pages. So I'm guessing there is some sort of refresh issue with

Re: Bluetooth Brail Display without Keyboard

Eric is correct about the Pen. I, too, would recommend the Brailliant 24, if you can find one. Also, if you wish to use a display and need to unhide the virtual keyboard, press space with 1-4-6 and it will toggle it on and off. HTH, Scott On 7/24/13, erik burggraaf e...@erik-burggraaf.com wrote:

Re: braille edge display and voice over?

Hi all. I've had to fight with the Edge to get it installed on 64-bit versions of Windows, and have found that it only works with Bluetooth on Windows 8. So if you are considering purchasing this device and run bootcamp, that's something you should be aware of. At this time, NVDA only supports

Re: a couple questions about IOS 7

For the record, iOS 7 will be available for the iPhone 4 and higher, all iPads except for the original, and only the 5th gen iPod. They did confirm that it will be a fall release, but didn't specify a date. My somewhat educated guess would be September, but you really never can tell with Apple.

Re: IOS 7 did I hear something right?

Hi all. I think the voices they were using in the demo were Vocalizer Expressive. The male voice, at any rate, sounds like an expressive version of Tom. However, for me at least, there was not a long enough sample to really be sure that's what it was. Scott On 6/11/13, Annie Skov Nielsen

Re: braille Edge with Apple devices

Hi Donna. You can move a txt file over to the Edge and open it, but it will not display in contracted braille. HIMS claims this is coming, along with terminal clipboard in the next software release. I've already contacted Executive Products about making a case for the Edge, and they said they were

Hi Annie. I don't think you can convert files from other formats to brf, but I wish you could. Unless there has been an update since I last used that website back in November? Scott On 3/8/13, Annie Skov Nielsen annieskovniel...@gmail.com wrote: Hi. Have you tried www.robobraille.org Best

: Hi Scot. I know the developer of www.robobraille.org, if you write me a mail of list in which you tells me, from which formats to brf you which to convert, I am sure it can be made possible. Best regards Annie. On Mar 8, 2013, at 3:33 PM, Scott Davert scottslistm...@gmail.com wrote: Hi
