Braille Pen is nowhere near as good when using with jaws.
The connectivity is Bluetooth only as well.

It doesn't feel anywhere near as well put together as the focus.

The Focus14 Blue will be able to use Power123, due out any day now, which
Jonathan Mosen spoke about in the latest (May 2014) FSCast. it will thus be
enabled to operate on the computer and iPhone at the same time, i.e.,
without having to be unplugged from the PC's USB port. (I think you press
the on/off button on  the side on the display to toggle whether you want the
Bluetooth operation or the USB operation when you want to change between
devices.) It has Advance bars, router row of buttons, WhizWheels, panning
buttons, shift and selector buttons, and of course the six-dot or the
eight-dot Braille entry keyboard for use with both JAWS and iOS. . it works
seamlessly with both.

Hi Jaws people, Do any of you know of a really small Braille display that 
is Jaws compatible and iPhone friendly and connects either by USB or 
Bluetooth? I am looking for just the display and not one that is

part of a device that has any of its own computability.

Hopefully, this would be able to work with either or both my Windows 7 
computer using Jaws 15 as well as my iPhone 5.


Thanks so much for any input or comments about your small display! Vicky

To spell the data on the cell you're currently positioned on, try holding
down the numpad insert and press numpad 5 twice quickly if using the desktop
keyboard layout.  if using the laptop layout, hold down the caps lock key
