[blindlaw] Blue tooth keyboard

Mon Oct 2 15:16:41 UTC 2017

Another advantage of Logitech keyboards is that they intelligently remap the Alt/Option and Windows/Command keys so that they’re in the right places when you switch between Windows and iOS. The Logitech keyboards that end with 80 pair with three devices. The 380 is the most compact while the 480 has a slot you can use to prop up an iPad, and the K780 has a number pad and comes with a USB dongle you can plug into a computer that doesn’t have Bluetooth. The Zagg Limitless keyboard comes with a similar key remapping feature and has a keyboard slot: it’s a little thinner and lighter than the K480. The Zagg charges via microUSB while the Logitech 80 series keyboards have AAA batteries. Apple’s Wireless Keyboard is very nice but a little too flimsy to carry around, and I wouldn’t recommend the Magic keyboard given its high price and shallow key travel. I’m typing this reply on an iClever tri-fold keyboard that actually feels a lot like a decent laptop.
The big takeaway is probably that unless you’re willing to risk having to return a few before you find one you like, I’d go to somewhere like Staples or Best Buy and try what they have then see if they’ll price match Amazon.

Respectfully,
Aser Tolentino, Esq.

If you are looking for a portable keyboard about the size of a laptop keyboard with keys almost the size of those on a standard keyboard, I recommend the Logitech keyboards. Another bonus of these units is that newer models can connect to multiple Bluetooth-enabled devices at once and you can easily switch between those devices with a hotkey. I am currently using the Logitech K760 which is a solar model requiring no battery. This unit charges via multiple light sources, including standard fluorescent office lighting. However, I believe this particular model has been discontinued and I am not sure whether it can pair with more than one Bluetooth device at once. I have also had good luck with Apple Bluetooth keyboards, though I am not sure how well they work when paired with a PC. I have used both Logitech and Apple models with my iPhone.

>>> I generally toggle on the quick nav (JAWS command + Z) and then off again to locate revisions and then, if the revisions are too complicated to quickly review, turn "Final" mode on to read the final result without all the verbiage of the revisions.  Having a hot key to quickly go back and forth from Original, Final and Markup modes is helpful.  I've also found that refreshing the screen "JAWS key + esc." And switching views around "draft, print preview, etc." helps if track changes aren't showing up in JAWS.  All this is in Word 2010.  I've not had as much reliable success in word 2016.
