I don't know, I only know that when I have to read multiple pages on the
Optacon II my finger begins to tingle and then after a while I cannot
seem to read, it is like it gets fuzzy, but if I use the other hand or
another finger it isn't really fuzzy.  I managed to read some novels on
the R1D but would never attempt it with the II.

The pins (or wires) on the optacon R2X are slightly flat, and sharp.  If
they were rounded slightly at the tips, would it go easier on the finger
to reduce finger fuzz?
