<p class="x_xmsonormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Hi Geraldine,</span></p>
<p class="x_xmsonormal"><span lang="EN-GB">I agree with David that more information would be ideal.</span></p>
<p class="x_xmsonormal"><span lang="EN-GB">However, as a generic finger in the wind, I would say that the Juliet 120 is a very good bet. It is sold by HumanWare and is virtually identical to the Index Basic D V5.</span></p>
<p class="x_xmsonormal"><span lang="EN-GB">My particular reason for recommending it is that it comes with a free license of Tactile View, which is usually a few hundred dollars in its own right, so it is good value for money compared to the Index and there
is no loss of features.</span></p>
<p class="x_xmsonormal"><span lang="EN-GB">It takes tractor fed paper and is quite noisy, but the embossing speed is generous, the dot quality is good and it can do graphics as well as text.</span></p>
<p class="x_xmsonormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Admittedly, the embossers from ViewPlus do tend to produce better quality graphics than the Romeo/Juliet/Index range, but they are more expensive and the braille dots are not as good, and the graphics on the Juliet
etc are still perfectly serviceable.</span></p>
<p class="x_xmsonormal"><span lang="EN-GB">HTH,</span></p>
