I just responded to a post you sent that said that you don't think that
anyone uses braille anymore. In light of that post, this one makes no
sense, because you seem to show interest in braille. Which of your posts is
accurate in giving your opinion of braille usage?

that will be nice.
your average laser printer costs around 300-400 bucks and 400 will give
you a resonable priced unit.
I have one that cost around that much with full network functions and with
updates to its firmware wireless eprint which tablet users find really
good.
I also enjoyed the discussion on the canute.
Heck if this works I will get one.
One thing I have been interested in is a braille display of some tipe and
a good braille keyboard to use the computer with so I can keep my braille
going.
Ever since I started using a computer in 1995 I gradually stopped typing
with the old clunky and heavy braille units.
aparently from a friend in the industry they are starting with the
electronic units with simple functions and graduating to full computers.
However I find it faster on a querty I just wish I could read braille on
the screen without spending a lot of cash to get one.
Even though you can get some cheap units for 2000 dollars I wouldn't use
it enough.

Hi Tom.
Buy an embosser? that is waaaaay more overkill than I am thinking here.
In the Uk at least there are braille transcription services that will
spend their time on printing, it's one way that say a local theatre can
get braille programs, sinse you are correct that braille embossers are
stupidly expensive.
I don't have a clear idea on costs, sinse it's not something I've looked
into but I don't believe it's that much, particularly as regards
reproducing the thing once you've got one printed and then are making
copies.
As to people who don't have much to do with the blind community, well to
be honest I fall into that category marginly myself simply because I
don't find blindness events or organizations that helpful or that I have
much in common with a lot of other blind people, ---- though i still do
look at the news letters just in case anything vaguely interesting comes
up, and would probably pick up a leaflet on something like games.
of course there will be some people who literally don't have anything at
all with any blindness organization, but you can't cover everyone! my
suggestion of an intro leaflet was just to let more people know who
normally might not.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
