[Trainer-Talk] Best braille display

[Reginald George]

Hi Scott,

I just wanted to thank and commend you on these thoughtful and comprehensive 
reviews.  I am an assistive technology specialist, and I found them very 
helpful.  Most people including myself just don't find the time to go into 
this level of detail, and your writing  is superb.  I hope that firmware 
updates and iOS 9 have resolved some of the issues with the Beatle that you 
mention, particularly not being able to read a book comfortably because 
every other panning you are only going to get 4 cells.  That's almost a deal 
breaker for me.

Good afternoon.
I am about to purchase a new braille display, but I am not sure which one to 
get.
I am looking at the one from H I M I S Inc. or the Variel ultra. Any 
thoughts?
Thanks for the suggestions

Kerryann Ifill on the move!
