[Pibe-division] multilinebraile display

Jewel et al,
 
I am actually scheduled to go to Raleigh in mid-March to attend a regional  
conference. I would love to try to connect with Dr. Yung to have a look at 
the  prototype--if he might be interested in my opinion as a blind consumer 
and  veteran educator. I am excited by the possibilities afforded by this or 
a  similar product. A great week to all!

I think it's amazing that someone is creating  this product. I do agree 
wwith Denise this multiline Braille display has the  potential to change how 
math is taught to blind students and it would be great  to read a whole 
braille page using a braille display. I do wonder though how  the price for such a 
braille display will be affordable. To my understanding,  the pins for any 
braille display are the most expensive part in making the  braille display. 
The lowest price I've noticed of a braille display is $1,395.  How can the 
braille display price be made lowered than this? If a braille  display would 
be available for $1,00, I'd consider this affordable. Jewel,  have you had 
hand-ones experience with this device? Can you keep the listserv  informed 
about the multiline braille display. I am blind and use braille on a  daily 
basis. I am also a certified teacher of the blind in New York and enjoy  
teaching in this field.
