[nabs-l] question about identification of different items

[Patrick Molloy]

Jorge:
The device of which I spoke earlier is called a pocket money brailler.
Instead of telling you about it, I found the link to the site where
you can buy it if you so choose:
http://www.braillebookstore.com/view.php?T=Pocket+Money+Brailler
Hope this Helps,
Patrick
