I used to work with a blind programmer who had a small Braille
terminal (1 row, 40 columns, as I recall). The thing was too big
to be carried around but I imagine a smaller version could be
made to go with a laptop.

There are braille displays made for laptops. There is also at least one
laptop with a brailiedeisplay instead of a screen.

And there are PIMs with braille deisplays, at least on of wich runs Windows
CE, that can be used for reading manuals/books on the road. Unfortunately
they cost a lot more than ordinary PIMs.

I don't know about Adobe's plugin but I have a pdftotext
utility. If you want, I can take a shot at your PDF with it.

If it does a better job thad Adobe's own softare for this, I'd love to know
wich utility it is. Does it handle encrypted/locked PDFs as well?
