I may have to look into that myself. I've also been blind my entire 33 years
and could never quite get the hang of this writing print business. I can
sign my first and last initials but even that's probably not very
consistent.

Yes, it’s instructive and fun. Just what I needed, being blind from birth
and though familiar with letter and number shapes from playing with alphabet
blocks as a kid, I haven’t written them much. This is good practice, since I’d
like to enter my passcode without the thing blabbing to the rest of the
world. :)
Great job, guys.

Cheers!
