Hi,
4GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Atom Processor, basically it's an Asus laptop with
Braille display and no screen.
I agree that the Braille display is not detachable, but it also isn't on for
example, the Polaris, which has a much older operating system.
All the best
Steve

Hi Steve
Yes, but the concern is that you can't detach the Braille display, meaning
that when the machine outdates or has a problem, the Braille display is
redundant. Out of curiosity, what is the spec of that machine?
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Hi,
The EsyTime Evolution from Eurobraille is a 32 cell Windows 10 laptop.
It has the advantage of 4GB of RAM, and Office seems quite snappy on it.
Disclaimer: I do sell it, but any questions, fire them at me.
All the best
Steve

Hi Adi
I am just about to buy a new unit.
So I asked on this list for help.
I am not an expert; I lost my sight late in life.
This list is a life saver for people like me.
This group has hands on experience and knowledge.
I am grateful for your input but might I make two observations:
Firstly: you promise an upcoming improvement, jam tomorrow not Jam today.
You shroud this in secrecy: why?
This group could have terrific input.
Secondly: the unit isn't working as well as people hoped.
Perhaps this is because our expectations are too high, or your sales team
have overstated its capacity.
Yes it is great news about the ability to upgrade but I don't want a unit
which at this time is useless.
If I could have a 14 or 40 cell Widows 10 computer which worked I would be
so happy.
Regards
Jeff

problem isn't often resolved.
Hi Jeff
Here's mine then.
At first glance, and when you don't have many applications running
on it, ElBraille is not bad. But once you start using Office, or
other applications that are bulky and memory hungry, forget it!
Support is awful to be honest. You have to wait for an
unacceptable length of time to get through and, when you do, your
** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:-
ElBraille has a small drive which is split between the onboard
memory and an SD card that is fitted internally. It means that
this is not a proper version of Windows 10, because you can't
restore it, and there are ElBraille folders on it that make
formatting and restoring hard to do without sighted assistance.
I also have concerns about the long term partnership of Elita Group
with VFO Group. There always seems to be a problem with what is
coming out, what is pure conjecture, and who supports what.
I sold mine earlier this year. Before I could, however, I had to
return it to S and S for some kind person there to reset the whole
thing and remove my details so it was clean to sell on. I couldn't
perform a clean Windows restore or install because Elita haven't
included the image to do this in the package.
So, all in all, steer well clear for now. I'm not saying it won't
happen in the future, but the fact there is such an incredible
delay tells me there are issues, so I don't think it's viable.
This is such a great pity as I had hoped that a portable Windows 10
device would be really useful. Not so for me at least!
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

I have seen ELBRAILLE, 14 that is, at a couple of the exhibitions.
Frankly, I was under whelmed by the people showing it.
My fear about it is, will it be another bit of kit which will be
obsolescent within a couple of years?
Also is the spec good enough run at less than a snails pace?
I am also waiting for the 40 cell version where the display will be
removeable.
although I can't now remember why!!
I notice that on this list nobody has mentioned it much!
Would love to hear some views!
Cheers
Jeff
