Subject: Re: what are your experiences with braille displays and ios/bluetooth?

Hi Scott,
I tried hid also but that does not seem to work on the iphone (by that I mean i 
tried connecting the brailliant while its protocol was set to openbraille 
instead of humanware and the channel to bluetooth).
I dont think the refreshbraille is sold here in the Netherlands but the himms 
displays are being sold here nowedays. I did hear though that some himms 
displays have a bug where braille input/typing is  concerned?
Not that that would be a big issue for me but still… Greetings, Anouk,
