[nabs-l] Fw: Touchscreen Braille Writer

[Misty Dawn Bradley]

Hi,
Yes, this app sounds similar to the other one, although I don't understand 
why the students created one when there is another app like it already being 
tested? I agree with others that the other project should not have been 
dropped, although it is nice to be able to type in Braille. For me, I am 
used to the QWERTY keyboard when typing emails, texts, documents, etc. If I 
had difficulty typing on a touch screen, I would just get a bluetooth QWERTY 
keyboard to type on, and the only reason I would switch to a Braille 
keyboard is if I am actually composing Braille in a Braille document. I 
guess the preference depends on the individual, but now I use the computer 
for most things, so I am used to the QWERTY keyboard, although I am fast 
with Braille also. I guess I am just surprised at how sighted people think 
that all of our typing must be in Braille for us to type adequately, and 
they seem to think that it is terribly difficult to type on a QWERTY 
keyboard. I don't understand this, especially when knowing how to use a 
QWERTY keyboard quickly and efficiently is an important skill for employment 
and things of this nature. I can understand that on a touch screen it can be 
more challenging, but after some time getting familiar with it, one usually 
gets faster at it. I am not saying that Braille is not important, but I am 
just saying that being quick and accurate on a QWERTY keyboard is important 
in today's job market also, although Braille is a very useful skill for the 
blind in taking notes, labeling, and producing Braille materials, etc.

>>>>>>>>>> Beyond the price difference, touchscreens offer at least one

>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> Dharmaraja noted. "They can accommodate users whose fingers are

>>>>>> or
>>>>>>>>>> large, those who type with fingers close together or far apart,
>>>>>>>>>> even
>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>>>> allow a user to type on a tablet hanging around the neck with

>>>>>>>>>> opposed
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> as if playing a clarinet."

>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> SHOWING OFF
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> In a demo, Duran donned a blindfold and readied himself before 
>>>>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>>>> touchscreen. He typed out an email address and a simple subject
