Hello Steph,
Thanks for your opinion. Most things I have heard about the
Touch have been complaints, so it's nice to see a few people
liking it. I will take it through its paces hopefully this
summer, and by the time college rolls around, I'll have my
decision ready to make whether I want a Touch or a Polaris.
Thanks,
Zach

Hi all,
As a user of the touch, and previously a braille sense u2, I
thought I would add my thoughts. I received my touch in chugust
last year. It did not get off to a good start; it crashed
constantly, and I had to send it back to hw. It was the
motherboard that was at fault.
Since getting my touch back though, it has worked bri'liantly.
It has some little quirks to it which I will explain shortly.
First the good stuff:
The word processor is second to never. I can create documents
easily with it, which is very important to me, as I write posts
for websites, and need to create content. I cant do every thing,
like insert immages etc, but I can write my text and use google
docs. I also use other third party apps, such as tweeting for
twiarter, and dropbox. Again, dropbox means I can transfer files
there to work on my ipad etc. Keymail (the built-in email
software) is easy to use, except you cant get threaded mail, and
are unable to empty the trash. Because I get many messages a
day, this can create a problem. However, I am using an asp
called k9 mail, which has the features keymail lacks.
One huge annoyance for me is the inability to copy and paste. I
can copy and paste text from keyword, but an unable to copy text
from a website and paste in to an email or document. This is a
real problem to me. Same with contacts. There's no way to copy
that info.
That's just some thoughts from my end. The braillesense was very
very stable, and did every thing as well as the touch.

Hello,
I did find the article that Greg wrote.� The only reason I said
most of those things were from other people's many complaints
about the Touch such as in one person's example, five apps
crashed at the same time.� But question, aren't the specs on the
Touch just a little outdated? I'm not trying to sound mean, but
Wifi standards from 2013, and it doesn't support 5G
connectivity,
I don't think.� But on the other hand, the Touch does have
things
that Hims doesn't such as full nemeth support, a removable
battery, upgradable internal storage, and a camera in the
center.�
I also must give the Touch credit where credit is due, from what
I heard, it has a much better TTS engine.
Thanks,
Zach
