USB C is the latest cable which is uni-directional - it does not matter which way round you plug into the PENfriend for it to work. 
You will only need USB cables when you want to download software for back up / restore and the other facilities that PENfriend has.
This new feature applies to PENfriends with a mark '25xx'. You will find this on the inside of the pen on the registration sticker and printed on the base of the battery cover.

The Unstoppable Duo follows The Big Test! in this series of picture books designed for Blind and VI children or parents. Written by Dave Steele, the Blind Poet, who himself suffers from Retina Pigmentosis.
Here is what Head Teacher Karen Edwards said, "For all children, especially those with special educational needs, having representation in children's literature encourages an acceptance for all and a sense of belonging, seeing beyond any disability.
Austin's Amazing Adventures: The Unstoppable Duo, is a wonderfully written and beautifully illustrated story celebrating such diversity, where the characters are not defined or limited by their individual needs, but by their friendship and imagination.
The Unstoppable Duo will be published in September 2025, backed by media announcements.
