Hi,
In some cases, you might need to press SPACE along with the
character dot combination you wish to type.
Cheers,
Joseph

Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Inputting Email addresses to Iphone
With Apex
The at sign, at least in American, is dots 4 and 7 (backspace
with 4).
To enter this, you must turn on 8 dot braille, which I leave on
all
the time anyway to avoid grade 2 mistranslation problems. Hit
space-g
to get into uncontracted, then space-2-3-6 for 8 dot braille.
You
should now be able to enter the at sign with no problems. This
also
helps for capital letters, braces, the underscore, and other
characters that use 8 dots.

First of all, thanks to all for such wonderful feedback on
pairing the
Iphone to apex. The podcasts are great! I've got it working.
Has anyone been successful at typing e-mail addresses in the
contact list
with the apex? I've tried, but whenever I enter the "at" sign
it reads and
displays it as the "percent" sign. In computer braille, isn't
the "at" sign
dot 4 or chord u and then dot 4? I've tried it both ways and it
keeps
showing up as a percent sign? Is it best to have contracted
braille off? I
know there's the problem of not typing fast enough it will
assume you're
writing something unintentional. Wasn't sure if possibly having
the
contracted braille off might help with the "at" sign problem
Thanks in
advance for your wonderful feedback.
