[nabs-l] Did Anyone At Convention See the Neo Braille

[Vejas Vasiliauskas]

>From what I gathered at the exhibit hall, both this new notetaker 
and the Braille sense have lots more capabilities than the 
Braillenote Apex does, which is what I have.
I didn't really like the Braillenote touch because of the touch 
screen; it may appeal to a lot of people though.  I know that it 
has a cover with a keyboard, but it makes it heavier than the 
Apex.

How does it stack up to the braille sense u2?

Yes I did see it.  The guy from Irie didn't know much about how 
the software
or user interface works (Irie is only the distributor not the 
manufacturer),
so I don't know how efficient it is to actually use.  It is less 
expensive
than the Braillenote Touch though with significantly better 
memory,
processor speed, and running a newer version of Android, and most
importantly for me will have the option of a qwerty smart case, 
so I am very
excited to learn more once it actually comes on the market at the 
end of the
month.

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone at convention who went to the exhibit 
hall, saw
the Neo-Braille, presented by Irie AT.  It is a notetaker that is 
so new
that many people have not heard of it.
In fact, I never heard it announced anywhere else at convention, 
so if I
hadn't gone to their table I probably never would have heard 
about it
myself.
If you did see it, I would appreciate it if you could tell me 
your opinion
on it and whether you feel it would make a good notetaker.  I 
currently have
a Braille note and am looking within the next year of either 
getting the one
I just described, or a Braille sense U 2.
Thanks.
Vejas
