sometimes if I'm reading a long email or something, I'll only be able

Aside from a few issues (mainly VO's inability to remember braille
settings across multiple sessions - like whether or not to display
that obnoxious highlight line) braille is quite effective and neat.
Some things aren't intuitive - I can't click on a member of a group

the quality of the braille display is another topic for another day,

Hi,
There is a VO shortcut to read the currently focused item. I am a

Hi Rossy,
If you have a MacBook Pro of any sort, you do not need to install the
MacBook Battery Update 1.4. Only if you have a MacBook model and if
it's firmware version, serial number, and pack lot code all meet the
specifications do you need to install this.
Cheers,
