I have the Apple Bluetooth keyboard which I purchased online from the Apple
UK website. I don't use it much these days, but it was worth the £60
investment because it got me going and gave me the confidence I have now to
do things without it.
Good luck.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Hi Eleanor
Ok firstly, I have been bogged down by comments and advice,
I can only remember or absorb so much partly because of my
disability and also I am learning something new. With the
keyboard I have now, only one key speaks so I have no idea
at all what I am doing so it is little use to me. I may hang
on to it as mum may get an ipad too but I am not sure. It is
not worth the agro of returning it. On amazon thre are the
ultra thin or ultra thin, I am not being given a choice,
just for different colours and for ipad air and things like
that.
Regards
Adrien

Adrian, I did advise an Apple keyboard actually and said you
would not go
wrong there. I have an ultra-thin myself and I love it
however, I would
recommend the Apple keyboard for you as it also has the
Function Keys on it
which the Ultra-thin does not. What is the one you have at
present. can't
you use it by touch until your new keyboard comes?
