Hi Alia, YOu may want to consider what size of display meets your needs. If you want portability so that you can carry the display around with your iPhone, you may want to go for something with less than 20 cells (I use a 12 cell display). However, this may get frustrating when trying to read books. I don't mind reading them on such a small display but I know that many people do.
I use a BraillePen 12 which suits my needs. It's not as expensive as some Braille displays but then again, you get what you pay for. It's not a particularly advanced display (the model I have doesn't support cursor routing and there are some on the market with longer battery life), but I can input using grade 2, use the commonly available iOS commands on the display and I can get 5 hours out of the battery with constant use and obviously much more on standby. Hope that's of use. Ed On 21 Sep 2013, at 23:32, alia robinson <[email protected]> wrote: > I am thinking of getting a braille display.
