You can try that and see if it's faster. I've been using contracted Braille for 
so long that typing uncontracted Braille is more distracting for me than 
dealing with the delay. But it might work better for you; you never know. I 
find that turning automatic translation off lets me keep my writing rhythm 
going when I only have to press the translate command at the end of a paragraph 
or before a hard carriage return.
