Thank you for the link, I’ll check it out. For that kind of money, it had

snack, as well..

Hi Mark,
Well, I’ll get the bad news out of the way first. It costs $6400. Now, why am
I considering it? First, it has a dock that connects it to the iPhone, so that
the device and the iPhone essentially become one unit. Obviously you can use
it as a keyboard, as you can many other

Hello Donna,
I have never heard of the Braille Activator device. How much does it costs?
And why are you considering it over other Braille displays?
Last week, I purchased a Focus 40 Blue, 5th Generation, Braille display from
Freedom Scientific for approximately $4,000. It is an absolutely
Yes Gabe you’re right, on the Mac voice control interprets what it hears from
voice as your dictation which gets some pretty screwy results as you say. In
order to use it you really have to use headphones to keep voiceover in your ear
and not in voice controls microphone ear. All that said I’ve
Hi Angie,If it’s the same podcast I found, that podcast is now over a year old. So a lot may have changed since then. You’re right, in order for the purchase to make sense, I would want to know something definitively from the manufacturer.but I kind of can’t believe they wouldn’t plan for the

That’s a really good question, Angie. I just wrote and asked the US dealer.
I’ll let you know what he says.
Best,

I may be a bit over cautious but the Activator connects to the iPhone by
lightning and newer iPhones will be USB c, so my question would be, if I were
to buy one: will we be able to connect it using USB C? It may be possible to
get an adaptor, but for that much money I’d really want to be sure.
Hi Jason,
Thanks for this. It’s good to know that the panning mechanism works reliably.
And I didn’t know about Jonathan’s podcast. I will see if I can find it.
Cheers,
Donna

Yeah, exactly! I mean, it’s true that on the Mantis you can set it in braille
keyboard mode, and type Perkins style. But for me that isn’t the same. I’ve
also always wanted a braille display where I could just mount the iPhone on it,
and use it as one device. It’s just a LOT of money.
Hi!
My intention is to have a look at it some day this month.
It seems very cool with both a braille and querty keyboard.
And I love the concave cells on their displays.
Bless.
