Thanks for keeping us informed.
I’m not sure whether I myself will bother going down the Braillenote Touch path 
given that the Elbraille will be available very soon, added to this is the fact 
that I already have a 40 cell Focus Braille display so I’m wondering if perhaps 
the Elbraille might be available as a separate unit ready to integrate with the 
Focus? We’ll all find out soon enough I guess.
One question about the Elbraille that does bother me however is the lack of a 
display.
I can understand not wanting a display on the unit itself but I don’t think the 
Elbraille even has capacity for a connection to a display/monitor.
If this is the case then what on earth can be done if there is a problem say 
with starting the device that needs sighted assistance to troubleshoot?
