I just received the braille plus today. 
For the most part, I love the braille entry possibilities.
For the most part. However, there are lots and lots of problems with the way it 
echos words.

* When echoing words; if you write a word that contains many contracted braille 
symbols, the braille 
plus only echos the letters after the symbol. Like the word "echos" the braille 
plus says "os."
* it never says the word "the" when you use dots 2,3,4,6.
* "word" says "will."
I could go on and on, but I won't.
* After apostrophes the single letter is spoken as if it were a solo word.

I hope there are already plans to clean this up.

Thanks,
Richard
