Ok, you can get a macbook air and put windows on it and hook a braille 
display to it either bia bluetooth or usb or you could get one of the other 
wonderful pdas for the blind.  My impression was that you wre looking for a 
braille display that you could use with a pda.  I gather you were looking to 
buy something else.

Thanks to all for your clarification on this Braille display question.  It
makes me more likely than before to go with my instincts and skip the
blindness-only solution in preference to a MobileSpeak-enabled device.

I appreciate the info on Apple and Leopard's support of Braille.  This is
quite interesting; but I do not use a Mac and probably won't for the
foreseeable future, given the constraints of my work environment.  But
thanks.
