After a bit of research, my current first choice for a braille display is
the Brailliant 40. It is the smallest 40 cell display I have found, 12.2
inches, by 2.9 inches, by 0.8 inches thick. And, although not the
lightest, it is pretty light at 1.2 pounds. I like the size, and that it
is bluetooth as well as USB. Hard to believe, but they say it gets 25
hours on bluetooth or 100 hours on USB.
I've not gotten my hands on one, but I know the guy at Blind and Vision
Rehab Services of Pittsburgh who is in charge of their technology division
and he says it feels like a solid unit and he has had no specific troubles
with it.
There are plenty of other displays out there as well.
I think the Brailliant 40 sells for $4800. They also have a 24, 32, 64,
and 80 cell version.
