Hi. Man the more I'm reading on this list, the less and less I am liking some of the advice that FS tech support has been giving people. There is absolutely no reason why you can't use a wireless keyboard with any version of JAWS, 8.0 or otherwise. The kicker here is not to install the software that comes with the keyboard, it is not really needed. In fact, this very message is being ttyped with a logetech cordless keyboard, and as you can see, I'm having absolutely no trouble typing with it.
FS tech support really needs to get their facts straight! At 12:31 AM 1/22/2007, you wrote:
Heello all, just talked with the FS techs about getting a wireless keybord and mouse. They told me that this was not a good idea. For there might be a driver issue that causes problems with jaws, does anyone use a wireless keybord or mouse out there. If so please give us some details on your success.MMMOn Sun, 21 Jan 2007 15:37:22 -0400 "Hank & Patty" <<mailto:hank1patty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>hank1patty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> writes:Hello TonyAre you still having any problems using your Microsoft wireless keyboard with jaws? If so, what kind of problems are you having with this wireless keyboard? On the other hand, do you find this Microsoft wireless keyboard you have works really good with jaws to do all the things you do on the computer? If you could please get back to me when it is convenient to let me know, I would be very much appreciative as I am shopping around to see which least expensive wireless keyboard works great with Jaws. Thanks.Happy surfing Hank Merchant Jr. ----- Original Message ----- From: <mailto:tsantiago128@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>Tony Santiago To: <mailto:jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, December 18, 2006 9:56 AM Subject: jaws 8 with wireless keyboardHi guys, I'm running jaws 8 with a Microsoft wireless keyboard, Windows XP Home Edition, and my screen resolution is set to highest. While reading through text or arrowing through a list or even now as I'm typing this message jaws will interrupt itself and say "clear." It's quite annoying. Has anyone had this issue, and if yes, is there a solution? Thank you for any replies, and Happy Holidays to all of you.Tony Santiago <mailto:tsantiago128@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>tsantiago128@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Michael Thanks You... TickTalk Publishing Invites You...
