I'm almost tempted to get an orbit writer just to compare the 2 braille bluetooth keyboards. However, if I get an orbit writer and don't like it I don't want to have spent $100 and not be able to get my money back. I also have my input set to contracted braille and words for my typing. It works quite well.
