If the Mini is comfortable to use, I'd gladly give up the battery life for its
extra features. 10 hours is more than I'd use a display in a single day, and if
I were using it stand alone, then I assume I could turn off bluetooth and the
battery life would go up. I had a 32-cell display that work
I don't use that feature.

Yes, I also like auto-scrolling; my old braillelite does this. You start the
scrolling with a chord command and then can adjust the speed as you read.
For long documents and books, it's wonderful! You don't have to sit there

Hi All.
What I really like about the Focus 14 Blue is that despite the small
form factor the braille keys are the largest I have yet seen on any
sub-18-cell device, which makes it a breeze to type on, even typing
farily fast is nice. I prefer larger keys in order to keep the typos
to a minimum.

I do not know. I do not like and never use any auto-scrolling features. The few
people I trained did not ask about such a feature, so I did not research it.
My one quibble is that you need to turn the bluetooth on each time you turn on
the display. That said, turning bluetooth on is quite easy.

David, Does the EuroBraille have an autoscroll feature, such that you can start
a text scrolling and adjust the speed? I'm sure this takes getting use to, but
I know people who swear by it on the braille note, for instance. This is with
regard to the notepad feature, not to itts interaction with

Yes, it has always been the case that changing the voice changes the Braille

Thanks, Richard. I really lust after that notepad and auto scroll capability on
the Mini or I think the braille edge, although that costs too much for my
budget. I keep edging closer to the idea of just ordering the mini from Perkins
but hoping your source will come through and you'll be able to
Nice description. I don't think I would want to go below 18 cells myself and
wish I could have more but am still glad to have this much with my
refreshabraille. It's possible there would be some things I would like better
in the layout of the Focus 14, though that's hard to tell without actually
18 matches
