Hi Roger,

Thanks for the info about the EmBraille. I'd pretty much found out all
the details you mentioned here yesterday when I finally learned
ViewPlus is the manufacturer.

Even though I don't have any intention of acquiring one myself, it
would be nice to know what's maximum line capacity is. It sounds like
it may be able to produce up to 40 cells like the Perkins Brailler,
but I never was able to determine that for certain form the info on
the ViewPlus web site. Oh, and I assume it is also not interpoint
enabled like the Juliet line.
