Thanks, good to know.  Still could be useful, especially for music.

You should be aware, it is not yet an interactive display for use in real-time with a screen reader. It is just for reading documents.

Thanks Eileen.  This does sound interesting.  I’ve heard the refresh rate is a bit slow, due to the number of cells, but it would be real interesting to listen to the presentation and find out for myself.
Imagine, more than a single line of braille!

Hi Folks,
 
I got the below from a list I subscribe to. This 9-line, 360 cell Braille display from the UK sounds very interesting and as these displays go not a horrible price tag for the number of cells. Thought some might have an interest ...
