You plug a USB keyboard into it. You can install JFW (and other screen
readers) on Tablet PCs. But, from a blindness point of view there isn't
any difference then using a regular laptop since the touch screen isn't
of any use.

How does a blind person using JAWS operate a touch sensative tablet?

 

I might be wrong but I can think of a whole host of issues around using
one with JAWS.

Anyone know how well the laptops with the screen used as a writing
tablet work with speech?  Is the software accessible?

What exactly are those screens called?
