I'm always amazed to hear how different countries view what support VI people should have when working. Here in the UK if a blind person has a job, then the Government and the employer will help the person get equipment. Maybe the US should do the same especially if it helps disabled persons of any disabilities get work or stay in work.
I have a Eurobraille of my own and it works well with my Mac Book Pro! I hope to get one for work as they are so small. Kawal.
