Well, whoever is responsigle just needs to fix it... it's very annoying!!!!
I like using 8 dot braille when I'm on the internet or working in word
documents and switching between 6 and 8 dot mode on the apex is
cumbersone...

I think that is something Humanware can fix, though. As I see it,
keysoft is intercepting everything before passing it onto the iPhone,
which is how you can hit space-e to close terminal or, in your case,
hit an 8 dot character and have keysoft get it first. Since it works
when 8 dot is disabled on the apex but not when it is enabled, I have
to blame hw fully and say that apple is not at fault here. I have
emailed hw about this and have so far not heard that it is anything
apple-related, so I am sticking with my assumption for the moment.

Hi,
That's something that Greg mentioned too - that VoiceOver assumes you
are
using 6 dot when in fact all eight dots are supported. Greg also said
that HW and Apple are still communicating on supporting full QT support
and to implement 8 dot support.
Cheers,
Joseph

Hi All,
It seems if the apex keyboard is set to 6 dot braille, and the iphone
has
8 dot braille on, the dot 7 key on the apex works as a shift key
allowing
computer braille to be used... The pass through command 4 5 6 enter
works
perfectly fine in 6 dot braille... Make using computer braille easier
anyway, but it means I'll have to remember to change the keyboard
settings
back when I want 8 dot braille on the apex...
Annoying!
