Hello All:I spoke with someone yesterday who has used a Perkins Brailler to writeout things such as notes and recipes in Braille. She has severeArthritis in her hands, but her right hand is better than her left. TheArtiritis is making it difficult to use the Perkins Brailler. What I'm looking for is ideas on a solution where she could type out with one hand or dictate what she needs too, and get hard copy or Refreshable Braille. She's got a computer. I thought of either JAWSwith Jaysay and Dragon Naturally Speaking with Duxbury and an embosser, or, a Braille Note with one handed mode. These solutions will cost her, depending on what she already owns from about $3,600 up to $6,100. Doesanyone have other ideas that would help this person?
