Hi Carol

I could put it up on Sendspace for you if that would make it easier?

Kind Regards,

I know it was going to be a paid item at one stage ...

Anyway, I'll try again at some point ...


Thanks!

Hi Carol

I didn't log in or pay, I just went there and downloaded it.  Not sure 
what has happened with you there.

Hi Jackie,


Though I may well enjoy reading all of this - and it could persuade me 
to buy it - I discovered it's "log in" only. I know this was to be a "paid
for"
item. Is this the case, or can I just give myself a log in to the site 
and get it anyway?

Hi Carol

Go to
www.mysticaccess.com/braillenote-touch-tutorial.

You can download the entire thing in either MP3 or DAISY format.  I 
am working my way through it at the moment, and find it pretty good.  
If this isn't what you are referring to, I apologise, but recommend 
it
anyway.

Yes, Mike's still looking at it.


Did you manage to find podcasts 11-12, by the way? They didn't show 
up in their usual Youtube home and I haven't found them as yet.


The good thing if Mike gets one, in the end, is that I get to help 
sort it and play, of course! <Smiles>

Hi Carol

Thanks, but not really.  Using a separate Android or iOS device with
Braille
just isn't my bag.  I'm probably an old-fashioned girl in that I 
prefer an all-in-one device, but something which has a modern 
browser, and lets me
do
all the things I want with Braille built into it.  So the 
BrailleNote
Touch
is the only option, and that is my goal!

Jackie,


Have you used the virtual clipboard setting. This (theoretically) 
lets you input Braille as fast as you want then send it off to 
whatever device
you're
wanting to send to. Yes, the waiting comes at the stage where you're
sending
the written text to the device you wish to receive it as it first 
has to input it into the phone which, actually, isn't any quicker 
than putting it directly into the phone and allowing for the lag, 
but HIMS
think it is!
<BG>>


At least you can play around a bit with the Braille.


I have yet to determine whether this facility is limited to 255
characters,
which I did think may be the case at some point, and I'm going to 
ask HIMS directly about this.


The command on the notetakers used to be different from that on the 
Smart Beetle but it could well be that they've changed that command 
to be a universal one. The command I use on the Smart Beetle is
CTRL+C+Enter. I can't remember off the top of my head what I used to 
CTRL+C+use
(occasionally) with the Sense. Rajmund probably remembers though. I 
can
ask
him if you can't!


Does this help at all?

Hi John

I just find that if you write a message in Braille like on a U2, it 
is laggy.  The time between you putting in each letter and those 
letters appearing on the display is very slow, to me at least.

hi all
futher to my last on braille one difficulty with the android set-up 
with braille is that you have to change the keyboard to the 
hardware
keyboard.
now of course with the el-braille or touch this will not happen and 
of course you will have grade 2 braille i think.

the ease of use with a stand alone is massive. though it can be 
done the cheap way it is very very fiddley to do.

strange though i do find with the iphone my braille is very fast 
unlike jackie. i do use the american computer braille though so 
when i enter a number for number six i press lower f.
