Hi Katie, I'm glad to learn that VR, at least in California, is purchasing the VU for its clients. A couple years back I had to fight tooth and nail to get our Illinois VR to purchase a hims display for someone. It seems the VR here is very much in bed with Freedom Scientific, and they won't even look at products by other companies. Glad that isn't the case everywhere.
