Scott Davert, I would rather not bother any products from Humanware, for the folks at Humanware do not do much. I would not bother them but simply stay out.
A friend of mine has a Brailliant. The friend makes similar statements about the device as you said. Scott, I do have a Braille Sense Mini U2 which works good with any devices. I am fine with the U2. You should better off any contact or any product with Humanware.

Hi. Yes, I've also noticed that the Brailliant display line has had various issues with Bluetooth connectivity over the past few years. The newer firmware seemed to be a bit better when using the HID mode, but I haven't honestly used it enough to really say that it's better over a longer period of time. I find the Resreshabraille and the HIMS products seem to hold the connection better. The first and second generation of the Refreshabraille don't seem to hold the connection over a distance of 3 or 4 meters, but the newer generation, along with the Braille Edge and Braille Sense tend to hold the connection pretty stable for about 10 meters.
