right, but a bit of extrapollation could expand this in two ways that would work widely. 1 use the numpad as alpha input and 2 extend the keyboard to quirty.

I read the article David posted from another list I'm on but I didn't see a reference to typing in a qwerty situation. did I miss it? … I only saw a description of entering numbers on a touchtone style keypad.

 Let me know if I should reread, K?…

thanks bunches and have a great evening!…

Hi,

Two things. One, the qwerty would have to look similar to the one on the trekker. I know that isn't a qwerty, but something similar, with a qwerty would have to be inplimented. For typing, and the rest would have to be done via the methods that were mentioned in the article David posted.

Thanks,
Alex,

Alex, I'm not following you here. Perhaps it's just me, but could you like, describe what yer' saying, I mean like anything? -at all? … Can you please just do a bit of elaborating in one note as I seem to be losing you over this string of a few of them.

thanks so much and have an awesome evening!…

Smiles,

Cara  :)

Hi,

I meant how it would look. I am thinking of a small qwerty.

Thanks,

Good afternoon Alex,

Essentially you navigate the keyboard with direction keys and select a key with another button. I think a cellphone style keyboard like on the Trekker might work best though if that is what you're working on.

I still think you are going to have screen-reader problems with application interoperability and am interested in seeing how this is resolved.

Thanks,
Everett

Hi,

I was not aware of that and will look into that.

Thanks,

Good afternoon Alex,

Why could a software keyboard like the one on the newest Rockbox releases not work?

Thanks,

Hi,

We need to write the Braille and QWERTY Apple drivers for the IPhone.

Thanks for listening,
Alex,

Hi,

The driver for the Apple Braille keyboard that is.


Thanks,

it'sx. I got the iphone mixed up with google android. The apps are
separate but the core should be doable.

Good afternoon Alex,

Can you tell me how you get past, or plan to get past, the
application sandboxing on the iPhone platform? As I understand it
applications on an iPhone cannot interoperate.

Thanks,
Everett

Good afternoon,

I see on the VIPBC page that there is reference to a Google code project for a screen-reader on the iPhone. I was pretty sure that making a screen-reader for the iPhone platform would be impossible because of application sandboxing. I cannot figure out who the project owner is. I'd love to talk more about this
project if  anyone, particularly the manager, is interested.

Thanks,
Everett
