haveaHimms Braille Edge, which I like, but wouldn't recommend as it does not
include an auto-save and does hang quite easily.
However, until recently it also acted as a screenreader for VoiceOver but
when I try to pair it now, it just won't do it.
I'm not that bothered as I rarely used it as a screenreader for my ipHone,
but am curious as to why this should happen.

Hi Mandy
Of the note-takers doing the rounds, I would recommend the Hims Polaris in
either 20 or 32-35ll models. They offer a lot of features such as
Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Email client, Word processor, Internet browser, media
player, and the ability to leave the proprietary suite of applications and
delve into Android, albeit that it is running Lollipop. But it is a nice
machine and, in my humble view, far better than HumanWare's BrailleNote
Touch. I'm not going to start a war over that though, it is only my view,
feel free to get demos of both and see what you think yourself.
As regards payment options, these machines are really expensive, so you may
wish to look at payment plans which HumanWare offers on the Touch, and Sight
and Sound and Computer Room Services offer on the Hims Polaris family. I
have a Polaris Mini which is the 20-35ll version, and I really find it meets
my needs because of portability and features.
Yell if you'd like more info about it.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown
