OMG!!!  That is seriously expensive.  And for all that money, there is no

Just one thing I would correct.  the Braille Edge has forty cells, and i 
believe comes in right around $4000.  Also no internal memory, but about $2500 
less than the Active Braille and $2800 less than the Active Star.
Cheers,
