Here it is (prices are in US dollars):
http://www.applevis.com/reviews/accesso … le-devices
Here's the quick notes I took on them:
Esys (1495 for 12, has internal notetaking abilities. Catches: really small, and made in
France.)
Focus 14 (1295; price of the 40 wasn't included, but is probably at
freedomscientific.com. No apps. I think these will work with both Windows and iOS.)
Braille Sense ($3995. Included just because people seem to like it.)
Refreshabraille 18 (Routing buttons and joystick, contraction problems, price not given.
I think it's specifically for the iOS devices. The Perkins review hints that it's
probably around $1595. I think the contraction problems are due to Apple's braille
programs and not the display itself.)
Perkins Mini (mentioned as ~$50 more expensive than the focus14, and ~$250 cheaper than
the Refreshabraille. Reviewer complained about the keyboard.)
Brailliant 32 (Price not given, reviewer complained of sluggishness and the spacebar
being weirdly positioned)
Braille Edge (price not given, but was ~$250 more than the Focus 40. Carrying case sucks
and I think this means I should learn how to make my own. Don't remember off hand if it
sounded particularly nice, but since the Focus40 is doubtless 2-3 times the price of the
Focus14, it must have had something cool for me to include it.)
----------------------------------------
I wound up leaning toward the Focus Blue, Refreshibraille, and Esys, in that order. I could never remember enough about the Braille Edge to decide how to place it (I can't remember anything other than the comment on the carrying case... ).
