I am very interested in the orbit-writer. I'm not the best typest on my iPhone and being able to type a text message in braille input sounds very cool. I'm wondering if someone who doesn't know how to type on a standard computer keyboard and doesn't want to type on such a keyboard could find the orbit-writer useful. I also think the price of $100 for such a device is extremely reasonable.
