[nabs-l] Obtaining a BrailleNote at an Affordable Price

[justin williams]

The cheapest I've seen is about 2500 for a used notetaker of this type.
They jsually cost between 5 and six thousand nes.

Hello, I'm not sure if this is been mentioned but you might want to see
about applying for grants in order to purchase such a piece of technology.
Because getting used or even brand-new and less you find somebody that just
honestly wants to so you one for cheap, you're going to be spending at least
at thousand dollars or more. Keep in mind, when something is sold cheaper
than that it may or may not work for your needs.

Hi All,

I hope this message finds you well. While I principally rely on adaptive
technology for performing all my tasks effectively, I have recently come to
realize that Braille can also be immensely useful in several contexts. More
specifically, as a lawyer, I think I would immensely benefit from Braille in
situations where I am required to read something verbatim from a document or
seamlessly refer to some pointers for a presentation.
However, the BrailleNote, which as per my understanding would be the most
effective tool in such contexts, is prohibitively expensive, more so for me
since I live in India and the device is simply unaffordable when one
converts the price into Indian currency. Therefore, I was wondering if
anyone could suggest a cheaper tool for using Braille seamlessly or a way of
procuring the BrailleNote at an affordable price. Anything less than 1000
dollars, ideally.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best,
Rahul
