[nabs-l] Can you connect a Bluetooth Keyboard, and a BrailleNote Apex Display in order to to use it with theiPhone 5

[Helga Schreiber]

Hi Ryan, this is Helga. How are you? I just wanted to tell you that my 
BrailleNote works with my iPhone! I just wanted to ask you, Do you know how 
to take the screen keyboard off when you are typing with the BrailleNote 
Apex? I'm just wondering, since everytime I'm writing a text message or an 
email message, the screen keyboard always appears, and I don't know how to 
take it off! I will really appreciate it, if you could help me with this. 
Thanks and God bless!! :)
P.S. Also, it is true that they are some commands that you need to learn in 
order to control the IPhone right? Thanks again! :)

Yeah, it definitely makes it easier to use the iPhone when you're
controling it from a bluetooth device.  And the nice thing about the
braille note is that you can mute Voiceover and just use the braille
display.  Hopefully your Lighthouse instructor can help you set it up.
If you need help setting it up, e-mail me off-list and I will be
happy to give you step-by-step instructions on exactly what you need
to do to connect the Apex.  The process is a little bit different than
connecting a regular bluetooth keyboard.  Let me know if you need
anymore help.
