[BlindTlk] Focus Blue 40 Instruction...

[Lloyd Rasmussen]

Freedom Scientific will be having a  webinar about JAWS and focus displays.
It is on January 16 at noon Eastern Standard Time. I guess you should go to 
the training section of the Vispero website and look for it.

Subject: [BlindTlk] Focus Blue 40 Instruction...

Dear friends,

    I just purchased a Focus Blue 40 refreshable Braille display, and I'm 
hoping that you can help me with learning it!  This is the first refreshable 
Braille display that I have ever used, so it is a brand new experience for 
me.  I am good with computers in general, but not with the Focus Blue!

    A number of years ago I recall different companies that sold cassettes, 
although now I would guess that it would be on CD's, that would provide 
instruction on different aspects of software for the blind.  They had 
instruction on things like Microsoft Word, Excel, Windows, etc.  Does anyone 
know of something like this for a Focus Blue?  I have the instruction manual 
that came with the unit, but it is not very detailed, and seems to be 
tailored for someone who is already familiar with refreshable Braille units 
in general, and the Focus Blue in particular.  I hope to use my unit at 
work, but it would be so much easier if I could actually learn it, rather 
than just stumbling around on it.  I called the manufacturer, but they said 
that they don't have anything other than the manual that came with my unit.

    Any help would sure be appreciated!  I'm guessing that there isn't a 
whole lot that I have to learn in order to affectively use this, but so far 
I just seem to be frustrated!

Thanks...
James
