I, too, have an Actilino, and I am quite pleased with it. It replaced an older Braillino that unexpectedly just stopped working about two years ago. The only down side I’ve noticed is that, when connected to my Mac mini, I can’t seem to get my VMware Fusion machines to see it. For some reason, VO takes exclusive control of the Actilino’s driver, and won’t let go for anything. On the plus side, I do like being able to switch among three bluetooth devices.
