let me see if I follow.
A portable device that raves about working for the blind. Mandates an
input method used by less than 10% of the blindness population?
I did stress dectalk, hacking into a Raspberry pi would not create my
goal..never mind the absolute lack of an inclusive method for me
personally pi wise. I might add that needing to Cary around a USB keyboard
reduces its portability.
Speaking personally of course, limiting input methods limits sales and
market share.
Just my thoughts,

I believe this device is using a Braille keyboard, though you can likely
connect a USB keyboard to it. Another solution that was proposed is to set
up a note-taker of sorts using a Raspberry Pi.

While that seems to be far more than I need, I am confused by something?
It references a braille keyboard, but I am in the majority of the sight
loss population, I do not use braille for input.
Does this device have an actual button based input method?

Hi all,
Let me spell out what I mean.
a portable Linux based in terms of being open source device that can
manage at the very least text files. Something easy to load files into,
as well as if possible add an open source edition of speech synthesis?
Some work being done on dectalk if that resonates.
Does such a device exist?
