[jaws-uk] Re: Shorthand / Speed audio typing tutorials

I am afraid the RNIB tutorials are good to start with. If you already know
how to type, they are not that useful...

The more you write the faster you become, but remember that is not always
good and remember the risk of RSI as a result of it...

Regards,

Andrew.
