[BRLTTY] Braille Display Comparison

I would get the bi40, its software is not great, but the hardware is
very nice and it seems to keep working well, I would never buy anything
from Freedom Science Fiction.

In addition, it is getting difficult to find boards that I can afford with serial ports. The ones I do find are older, refurbished models, or very high end server models which I do not need at this time. I realize that I can always use a USB to serial converter, but that is just one more wire to worry about and sometimes they do not work very well.
