Kenny,

Braille displays are NOT off-topic for the Blinux list. 

I would strongly advise getting a 40-cell Braille Lite. it will work 
very well with BRLTTY. That is what I am using. A 40-cell display will 
show most of what is on most lines. I haven't used an 80-cell display, 
but i suspect it would be rather cumbersome. 40 cells is the standard 
length for a braille line in the U.S.
