Shane, Hello and welcome to the list. I also brought up the topic of Instant Messaging both here on the list and directly with LevelStar. Also there has been the talk of Braille Display support on the list. The word is this: They MIGHT build in an IM client, but haven't come to a final decision, and right now it's a very big "might". As far as input on the Braille Display? Bluetooth support is underway and almost finished. Maybe I'm wrong, someone please correct me if I am, but wasn't there supposed to be a beta for display support ready for the conventions, or did I mishear something?
