Dear Sarah, I agree with you, but I was trying to be tactful. I am biased for the QT keyboard and sometimes I have inadvertently offended some BT users. I don't want to be the next one to get the "red flag." (grin).
I saw an Aria once. Although I didn't think it was a very good notetaker, the keyboard layout seemed to make sense to me. There was the braille style keyboard and above it were several function keys, maybe 4 or 8. Chording was done using those keys. Of course, chording on the BN could be turned of by default when a person is editing a document and turned on again when needed. That would probably be the least expensive solution because it wouldn't require any new hardware. Terri Pannett, Amateur Radio call sign KF6CA.
