The bluetooth keyboard is great. It was getting annoying to have to tap each
letter twice to select it. It was fine for texts but not email. My fingers
are a bit big and this small keyboard takes some getting used to. So please
forgive any typos til I get used to it. I type too fast to hear all the
letters and words. I am glad I got it.
