It is not a bad notetaker. Some functions could be more intuitive, but it's a work in progress and they are receptive to feedback. The battery doesn't last so much. When working with an iDevice, it does the job well but some keys should be remapped to perform more iOs functions. Just ask some questions and I'll do my best to answer.

I haven't tried it but from what I researched about it I is a wonderful braille display.

Yes, I own one. I purchased it used on ebay about 2 years ago. I don't think I would recommend purchasing one new though. I was hoping to use it to take notes during meetings and things but I found the keys difficult to type on. Also, it seems to, at times, loose connection with the phone. It is very good for navigating around the device and reading text so if that's all you want to do with it, the Seika will work fine but I think you will find entering text using the keyboard with any kind of efficiency difficult. I hope this helps.
