Hi Steve Yes, the Esys is a nice display as a display, but I don't particularly like the built-in features on it. Great that it works with the Iphone though.

I think the BrailleSense is a cracking machine, and I think it will be even better when the new update is released. I would be interested to know if you get it talking to your Iphone in the future?
