I owned a Refreshabraille, but I couldn't stand how the USB connector was
designed. i found it almost impossible to insert the cable.

Subject: Re: small portable braille display for the iphone
Hi, the Focus 14 and the Braille Pen 12 are going to be the smallest,
but at the cost of more scrolling. If this isn't an issue for you, then
these are great. As you move up the line, the Perkins Mini has 16 cells
and even a text file and Braille file reader. Moving up from there and
where I would personally start is the Braille Connect 18 from APH. This
one has 18 cells and so even though there is a lot of scrolling, it's
not nearly as much as with a 12, 14, or 16 cell display. After that I
believe the next step up is the 32 cells displays.
Good luck.

Hi all,
I'm considering purchasing a small braille display for use with my iphone.
Just wondering what other users recommend? I want something that has a
decent number of cells for reading, but is still small enough to fit in a
deep pocket. Will even accept a size display the size of the phone if need
be. I was maybe thinking the focus 14 blue, or even an 18 cell display if
those exist. I mean a display, not a note taker. I already have a 32 cell
braille sense, but want something small I can carry in a pocket for if I'm
out and don't have my braille sense with me, which whilst it doesn't
happen offten, might still be a good thing to have if I want to be private
or not disturb others with the talking phone say if I get a message while
family members are watching tv. I only use headphones for music and I feel
a braille display means I can still use the phone, but be private and
quiet, and still be social with those around me when out, where as I feel
earphones cut me off from those around m
e and I look more anti social.
Just considering at this point, no real decisions made, but I'd enjoy
hearing others thoughts.
Hope everyone has a blessed day,
Andrew
