Hello, the short answer is they wouldn't, if you already have GPS there is really no point to get "Way To Go".


Way To Go is a "lite" version of our software without GPS. It is primarily targeted at schools and students, at a reduced price, it is also a stepping stone to the full blown GPS. This way you learn about virtually exploring maps, POIs, routes etc. in the safety of your home / school and once you have master that you can upgrade to GPS and take the product with you outdoors.

Hi,
to answer your question, yes it will support the Braille display.

If you have GPS 4.0 the Way To Go product looks/feels like the GPS
Virtual mode.
