[Nfb-science] Braille Displays

[David Andrews]

Whether or not a Braille display would be beneficial for you depends 
on a number of things.  First, how good you are with Braille?  How 
much of an auditory learner you are?  What kind of work you are 
doing, programming, math manipulation, document editing, etc.  For 
some things Braille is the easiest and quickest way, but if you just 
have to read a bunch of literary stuff, most people would find speech 
faster.  It depends on your style.  I use both at work, and if my 
employer didn't buy me one, I would get by without it -- although I 
much prefer having it.
