That’s really too bad about the Orbit. But I guess you get what you pay for. *sigh*. It would really be nice if people didn’t have to break the bank to get a braille display. Cheers, Donna > On Mar 24, 2024, at 2:06 PM, Pete De Vasto wrote: > > Regarding VarioUltra, no they've not

Hi Simon. Thanks for your advice. I don’t feel like an adapter in a spare pocket will work for me. I will phone the Apple store and ask about Bluetooth. Best wishes. Andy. From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Simon Cavendish Sent: Sunday, March 24, 2024 11:53 AM

Yes, it is. That was a big reason for my looking into the Activator. I still might end up buying one, just because there’s no other viable Braille display qwerty combo. I currently have an old Focus44 hooked up to my PC desktop, but as you can probably imagine, the dots are getting harder
