Wow, That makes me wonder how truly durable any of them are. I've had two Hims displays that afte only a couple years end up with problems, my u2 now has dots that are not coming up well, makes reading sometimes difficoult. I am not paying to have it ifxed. I can honestly think that my Braille Lite was the only display I ever had that lasted a really long time without problems. Even my Pacmate after a year or two started freezing up on me and t hat kind of thing. I am using a pacmate display now, and so far it's fine, but the whole pacmate itself had a lot of problems, for me.
