hi nicky,
i brought this subject up when i visited sight village in birmingham and
this year in cork, regarding in particular the braille equipment. i thought
i would have gotten a better response from people who use braille machines
but maybe i am in a minority.

Magnification Software
Hi, I wonder is this in some way admitting that their products are far
over
priced as it is? Having visited the Sight Village exhibition in the
Burlington recently it just amazed me the price of equipment and how much
out of reach of the user these prices are particularly here in Ireland.
We
do not get the same help as in Britain to buy these products such as
grants
up to the value of 80% of the price of the software so how are they
expecting us to pay for it? Its about time these companies woke up a bit.
