[Blindtlk] [Blindly] brailling or typing?

[The Crazy Cats]

We have one we got from amazon. Amazon basics bluetooth keyboard.  Very portable.  nice little thing. Cost I think about 20 dollars or something like that. Can get them much cheaper down there. I have seen them going for about 12 dollars though I can't say how well they work! it was very easy to pair  with  my iphone also. I HOPE that helps!

I use the Zagg Flex I bought at an AT&T clearance for $32.  It is very flat and will fit in a medium to large purse.  It works via bluetooth and will work with either Android or iPhone

Can anyone recommend a QWERTY keyboard that uses a braille display and will work with an iPad?

The great thing about QWERTY is that anyone can type on your keyboard if you

need them to.

Coming in a bit late on this thread of per usual. But I'm a brailler
using
a braille edge to write this post to you fine people.  Been using
braille
since the first grade.  I am mildly dyslexic  and no matter that I've
been
typing since the sixth grade and have put some serious effort into it, it

has never and I don't think  will  ever be as intuitive as braille is for

me. Because of course that's a very personal thing. The manner in which we

choose !communicate with others.
Thanks!

Good afternoon, Judy,

fact, as far as I'm concerned, that's the only braille
