You should look at the Braille Sense U2 - released at CSUN - , Perkins keys ( 
or qwerty) blue tooth, GPS receiver, light, market leading storage and 
memory... and much more

I am biased, we distribute it, but worth a look

Thanks David.  I am not really surewhat I am after at the moment.  I know I 
want something very light, must have wi-fi and bluetooth but as I know so 
little about them at present I will keep reading.  I like the sound of your 
Perkins type keys.  I would like to input in braille and read back some 
information in dots instead of listening to a voice all the time.  I have a 
laptop, desktop and iPad 2.

Thanks once again for feedback.

Regards

Mary
