We are very excited to announce that BrailleTouch will be on the App Store by 
January 31! BrailleTouch is an iPhone app that lets you type using braille on 
your touchscreen, and send text messages, emails, or tweets directly from the 
braille keyboard. You can also copy text you type using braille to the iPhone 
clipboard and paste this text into any other app on your phone.

date for BrailleTouch, please click on the link below to confirm your

BrailleTouch is available for the iPhone and iPod touch. The initial version 
supports English Grade 1 braille, based on the North American braille 
standards. We are working on Grade 2 contracted braille support for the future. 
BrailleTouch is fully compatible with VoiceOver. You can download a free 
version of BrailleTouch to try it out. The free version will speak characters 
and/or words as you type them in braille, and read back the full text you 
typed. If you are a braille instructor, the free version may also be a helpful 
tool to use with your students. If you want to send text messages, emails, 
tweets, or copy text to the clipboard from BrailleTouch, you can upgrade to the 
full version through an In-App Purchase.
