The concept of a braille e-reader seems timely, given the battle between disability groups and the Kindle--as groups demand that the read aloud function be restored. In the same vein, this proposed braille reader would address another need for some readers. Apparently the technology to fashion such a reader is available and a group of people have prepared a prototype.
I think this is one of the better proposed e-readers to come up as of late. I know that the market for such a reader would be quite small but I think it's very refreshing to see technology put to such good use, making e-reader available to those who would otherwise be shut out.
