I like HandyTech's BrailleWave.  It works great with WindowEyes.  It has 
great battery life.  You can use it as a stand-alone notetaker, but it works 
best connected to a PC or cell phone.  I'm still working with HT to get the 
Wave to connect to my Motorola Q using bluetooth.  When that happens, I'll 
be an extremely happy camper.
