Hi Jeff
Dont do yourself down, we can all learn on these lists! (smile). What
Steve meant is that you can automatically scroll when using most Braille
displays. You can set it to a speed at which you are most comfortable for
the dots to refresh so you never have to keep refreshing each line to read.
I prefer to do this manually, but a lot of people love automatic scrolling
in a document or book.
I hope that helps?
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

I love this phrase:-
was a real pleasure not to have to constantly press a new line.
Do they not know about auto scroll? <Smile>.
All the best

Hi Jeff,
Yes it is currently standalone. (That will change in due course)
It does not have cursor routing keys. (Yet!)
It has been developed primarily as an e-book reader for *brf Files.
(Braille Ready Format) There are literally thousands of brf files/books
available world-wide and on all manner of subjects.
Having 9 lines of 40 cells is a major advantage with specific things like
math, tables and music for example. At £1,895 ex VAT, theres not a lot to
beat that.
Ill be frank and say that its not going to suit all braille readers, but
those who have received one so far, are very pleased. One even said that it
was a real pleasure not to have to constantly press a new line.
That said, the potential to reduce the use of braille paper, is also a
factor. Id also risk saying that we are currently looking at working with
Duxbury as a means of proofing rather than producing hard copy to be read
once and thrown away.

I THINK WHAT I REALLY WANT TO KNOW IS IT STAND ALONE OR WORKS VIA A
COMPUTER?
Also does it have routing keys?
