I believe the dongle has a pass through.

Hi, Ron.
I agree that the dongle isn't the best option as, besides taking up
space, it occupies the only USB port on the OQO.
As for network authorization, I believe that's only available when
the PC is attached to the network. This would seem to negate the main
advantage of the OQO. I'd definitely go for the internet authorization
which, I've heard on list, will be used in Jaws 6 anyhow.
As for the keyboard, I'd definitely want a description, as I don't
know how the keyboard they have compares to other thumb keyboards. I don't
know how much this matters, as I said, as a USB or Bluetooth keyboard is
usable for longer writing projects.

Hi Aman
First of all, your comments on the video card; very valid, it hadn't
occurred to me. I don't like the dongle alternative, it defeats the =
pocket
element. What about the Jaws networking facility? Isn't Jaws authorized =
on
each computer on the network and isn't the authorization done via one of =
the
PCs? If this doesn't work authorization via the internet will have to =
do.
Somebody asked about the thumb keyboard. I have the same thing on my =
Nokia
9210i and I adopted the solution given to me i.e. using a paste that is =
used
by makers of stained glass panels. I got my wife to put a very small =
blob on
the f and j keys and others on the 1, 5 and 9 keys. I then use the first
finger of my right hand to locate the keys. You wont write nobvels but I
find it ok so much so that I use it for all my text messaging.
Ciao,
Ron.

Hi.
The authorization won't be a problem. You can either use the
internet authorization which is being sent out to new customers, and =
which
you should be able to ask for, or a dongle. The OQO has a USB port. The
problem, and I've asked the people at OQO about this and received no
response as of yet, is about the video card working properly with Jaws.
Since the video card is specialized I, for one, would like to see
confirmation that JFW works with it before I buy, or at least have the
opportunity to test without incurring their usual $300 restocking fee if =
the
program doesn't work.

Hi Listers,
For anyone who hasn't heard of the OQO 01 Ultra, this is a pocket =
computer
with 256Mb ram, a 20GB hard disk running Windows xp. When used at home, =
it
has a docking station that enables a monitor and regular keyboard to be
connected, making it a reasonable desk computer. PCWorld didn't give the
pr-production model they evaluated, a good report but I feel sure that =
all
or most of the problems will be sorted out in the next series. Having a
proper computer in my pocket running my usual xp applications AND Jaws =
is
the answere to the maiden's prayer, at least it would be mine if I was a
maiden!
Now for my question, in my system, it would be connected to a router as =
part
of my network. Installing Jaws from another computer is no problem but =
can I
also transfer an authorization key from this same computer?
Ciao,
Ron.
