I think the part of it for VR is that the Focus displays are among the few left
that don't have onboard memory or note taking capabilities, which is an
important thing when wanting to use one at work. The Focus 40 Blue is a great
choice though for a braille display, but I wish there could be local repair or
some loaner program vailable for when you depend on it for work to get around
querky controls that won't activate with anything else but a cursor routing
button.

I really like FS’s Focus 14 Blue, but I don’t like note-takers so it suits me
perfectly. I hate my old PACMate 20.
I’ve also used a Focus 40 Blue which I also liked. I prefer these to my
Handitech Braillino which only works with my Mac and refuses to pair with my
iPhone.
Cheers,
Anne

What's wrong with Humanware/fs's Braille displays? I've never seen them
so can't give an opinion.

Hi Chris,
It's incredibly nice to see that Apple is doing this at all. However it
looks like the only braille displays they carry our humanware. In my view,
that's a serious limitation, humanware and freedom scientific being the least
interesting braille displays on the market. No offense to you humanware fans.
I just think it's too bad that they're not carrying Hims products or Baum
products. cheers,
Donna

Maybe I missed this in another thread but you can now buy braille
displays, switch interfaces and eye gaze trackers from the Apple store:

Selection is kinda thin at the moment but I'm sure they will keep
adding stuff over time.
