[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Affordable braille notetaker

[Ramona Walhof]

Tracy, can you get enttire email addresses on 20 cells?  Can you get enough
of a knitting pattern not to be constantly frustrated.  If I use Braille
because I can't remember long technical things, I am concerned about being
cut off at 20 cells, even if you can move forward and back reliably and
quickly. Is this a useless concern or are there practices that lessen the
problem?

I recently bought the Orbit Reader 20-cell braille reader and notetaker.
The price is $449, + shipping, way less than any other notetaker.  I really
like it.  I've been using it a lot for reading, including looking through
the Knitter's Almanac Dotty mentioned the other day.  It makes a bit of
noise when the display changes, like shuffling a deck of cards, but it's not
annoying.  And it connects very easily to a smart phone, besides working all
by itself.

If someone has a few extra shekels and wants braille, this could be just the
ticket.

Tracy
