Hi, I have the Orbit 20 display and love it. Keep in mind that this is the
first braille display that I have ever used. The only thing I would wish it
had more is, 40 cells. I have pared it with my Iphone 6s and makes it much
better to type information into a post on Facebook and to read books and take
notes. Andy and Shubert

one big difference between the two is that the Orbit has 8 dot Braille and the
Braille me only has 6 dots.

I think there’s going to be an announcement about the braille me forthcoming
at seesun. (Just tried to make jaws say that right), smile.

Hi
In the March edition of APH newsletter the Orbit Reader 20 should be
available for purchase again sometime this summer. Unfortunately APH is the
only place to purchase the Orbit Reader 20.
There is another low cost braille display that you can research for
information; the Braille Me. I think the price for the Braille me is $450.
Donna
It’s my understanding now that APH isn’t shipping orbits until the summer.

Hi Carla,
Where did you order your orbit reader? I have been checking the American
Printing House for the last three weeks, and I continuously find a message on
the website that says: currently out of stock. Is there any other distributer?
Regards,
Cris

If you find the routing buttons helpful I would go ahead and order the
Braille Me. I don't know if they are similar in price. I just ordered the
Orbit and it meets my needs very well. There is a lot I have to learn about it
but it works very well with the iDevices.

Hello folks,
I wonder if any of you have acquired and used the orbit braille reader or
braille me and used them with iOS devices.
I read the description of both on their respective websites, but very
interesting to hear the views of people who have actually have hand on
experience with these devices. I know that the orbit reader is already out of
stock. I am not sure why so quickly! I also know that the major differences
are first the orbit uses the eight braille dots while the braille me uses the
six dots. The second major difference is that Braille me has routing buttons
while the orbit does not. In other descriptions they sound similar.
Any input on this topic will be extremely appreciated. I am not sure if I
should wait for the orbit to be back in stock, or go ahead and order the
braille me.
Cheers,
Cris
