[Blindtlk] Small Brailler and/or Inexpensive Braille Display

[justin williams]

As far as I know, they don't have a word processor, and they are all fairly
expensive.  The best you have is they can control a pc or I device or
soemthing like that.

Good question.  The smallest braille display I have seen is the Focus 14,
but again, is expensive.  Braille displays typically don't have the type of
memory you are asking for, baut will hook to a device that would have your
word lprocessor.

Something with a word processor incorporated would be a note taker, but
again, those have a lot of features.  I have the 18-cell U2 Mini, and it can
fit in my purse, or has a strap I can carry over the shoulder.  I love the
small size, again, is a note taker.

You might try asking on blindbargains.com in their classifieds.  I'm not a
braille display authority, so let us know what you find out.

Judy

P.S.  Merry Christmas to you too.

Hi All,
  I know the answer is very likely to be "no", but  I figured I would ask
anyway:).

  Does anyone know of a small (e.g., about braillenote sized or smaller)
manual Perkins-type brailler or a non-extremely expensive refreshable
braille  display without all of the bells and whistles. I am only in the
market for a very simple device (e.g., a display that just contains a word
processor) and potentially an SD Card or USB  slot.
Have a very merry Christmas all!
