Hi Mary, I've already signed up for the Mantis email list. I'm not too optimistic about it, as I've never been a fan of Humanware, but we'll see.
Happily, it looks like I may be able to arrange a demo of the QBraille. It's on the expensive end of things, but I would sure like to see any of these units before I buy, and neither APH nor FS has the option of getting a demo.
