[Arizona-students] Absolutely Brailliant!

[David Andrews]

>Pulse Data Expands Blindness Product Offering
>
>Complementing its existing range of products for people who are blind,
>Pulse Data is delighted to announce the release of two sensational new
>Braille displays.
>
>Weighing only 560g (1.23lbs) and 389g (0.86lbs) respectively, the new
>40-cell and 24-cell Brailliant refreshable Braille displays are the
>smallest, lightest and most compact displays on the market today.
>Designed for use with a laptop or desktop computer, and offering both
>Bluetooth and USB connectivity, the Brailliant 24 and Brailliant 40 are
>the ideal workplace companions. 
>
>"The launch of the Brailliant 24 and Brailliant 40 Braille displays
>reinforces Pulse Data's commitment to providing the highest quality
>mobile products for people who are blind," says Pulse Data's Blindness
>Product Manager Jonathan Mosen. "As a blind person who travels a lot, I
>know how much equipment blind people often have to carry. Our robust,
>reliable, wireless, and lightweight, displays take refreshable Braille
>for the PC to the next level. Nothing can substitute for proofing
>written material in Braille when you need to be sure of your formatting
>and accuracy. When you're working with text on your PC, a speech
>synthesizer can make it hard to tell the difference between words like
>'weather and whether', 'to and too', 'him and hymn'. A Brailliant gives
>you true literacy with your PC, in a package that doesn't break your
>back, or your budget". 
>
>The Brailliant 24 and Brailliant 40 Braille displays will be available
>from Pulse Data from August 2004.
