I feel the frustration in that sentence, Holly, and sympathize with it. For
what it's worth, there is a precedent as we have sold a Lime Lighter to a
middle school in New Jersey already. The NJ Commission has also ordered
units for a couple of professional musicians.
Regards from across the Delaware,

Thank you Bill!
I've seen the Limelighter at NFB conventions in the past and you spoke at
the NJ state convention last year. I do think it's awesome and it's
absolutely worth the price. Unfortunately it's just too big an investment
right now, especially for a newbie musician who isn't sure he wants to
continue. Also unfortunately, there is no way the school would provide one.
It took a court order to get braille instruction and it's hard enough
getting the terms of the ruling enforced. That's probably all I should say
about that!
Thank you for thinking of us though!
