Fri Oct 1 21:19:13 UTC 2021

Greetings Sanchit,
It's exciting to hear that you are learning Braille and that you are learning about refreshable braille displays. I will be glad to receive any questions you may have and to answer them as best as I can.

I am yours, respectfully,

Wow! thats awesome! I am a beginner and just starting learning Braille for one of my Braille course so it's so nice and cool to hear about new launch of Focus Blue 5th Generation Braille Display, So I've tried downloading page manual from it's website mentioned and looking forward to purchase!

Thank you for help.

Yours Sincerely,

Sanchit.
