Hi Sherri,

I've never tried the Braille Touch app but I do use Fleksy and it really
does work great.  Plus the company really backs the product with great
support and they are constantly adding improvements.  I can text much faster
with Fleksy and it is fun to use.

Thanks,
Jim

For those of you who read Braille and use the iPhone, this sounds
interesting. Also sounds easier than navigating a QWERTY keyboard.

    Hi,
I just read in Twitter this evening that the Braille Touch is about
to come to the app store.
You may remember that this concept got a huge amount of media
attention last February and then more or less disappeared from the
public eye. this app allows you to type on your iDevice like a
Perkins Braille Keyboard.
It is a paid app but you can try it out for free.
If you visit http://brailletouchapp.com/#maincontent you can read the
users guide and read the frequently asked questions.
You can also sign up on the email list to be notified when the app is
released.
It will be very interesting to see how this compares with fleksy.
John
