Jim et al,
The UK BCA have already investigated into this new magnetic set, bought one,
evaluated it as very unsuitable for VI usage. The magnets are not strong and
you can knock over the pieces very easily.
I would recommend to hold off until an updated model is produced. We've advised
them of our findings and they agree.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi All,
I was just poking around and found out that Chess Baron now has magnetic sets
for the blind at a very good price: 76, USD. Check out this page.

I mght have to spring for one.
