I stand corrected - keys like page up, page down, end and home don't work in android and iOS. There is no option to move the cursor to the beginning / end of the editing document. There's no option to find a specific text or go to a specific page.

Subject: Re: [AI] LAPTOP / Tab Dear Dipendra I have got pretty good usability with the keyboard. You need to update the Talkback from the market for it. You use the 4 cursor keys, tab and the enter key. With these keys, one can comfortably move from one control to another and change its status. Although I run 4.0 usability is fine because of the USB keyboard.

'; [email protected] Subject: Re: [AI] LAPTOP / Tab There is a completely different mode of operation when it comes to use of any android device. When we attach a keyboard, we will need to use the touch screen in same way as normal seeing persons use mouse in collaboration with keyboard. We are habitual in use of computer applications to do every thing with keyboard. Most apps on android are not to that llevel of keyboard support. There fore, for activating commands and to reach to diferent parts of screen or to read text out we would depend on touch screen similar to what normal seeing persons keep doing every thin on the PC with the help of mouse. When ever we reach any edit field where we need to key in text. We shift to attached keyboard. In this mode android is very usable. Although I am still not very satisfied with basic word processing app which is fully usable with screen reading software on android. IOS is doing much better on that front.
