I believe that the MS tablets come with a keyboard, or at least one is offered. 
The advantage is portability.

Would those of you enamored with touch screens explain the advantage or 
attraction?  I'm of course approaching this  as one with no vision.  RD

Subject: RE: Window-eyes on a Microsoft Tablet

Hay man I am so there.  The cool thing is these bad boy have a usb port on 
them.  got my self a otg cable and now you just connect a usb hub kick back 
and pound away on that old bad boy keyboard.  The speaker on this bad boy 
tablit are like way loud. So you will be able to here it. now when you got 
to go some where you can leave the stuff at home hook up the new blue tooth 
keyboard that folds up and fits in your back pocket or get a case for the 
tablit and get going where ever.  You got the touch screen and keyboard.  It 
works good.  Now gw micro here us again we want and we need touch.  Look at 
what the other guys are doing and for god sake do it even beter.
Not saying the others are bad but I know gw micro can do better. I will post 
some of my ideas on this subject  later on.

I must admit at the outset a bias on my part:  I am a confirmed knob freak 
at age 69.  I have also operated the Apple IPhone with all of its gestures 
and touch operations; and for my part, nothing beats a good solid mechanical 
keyboard with real buttons that you can press to reliably get what you want!
Perhaps touch screens will become more reliable as they improve; but I don't 
think I'd want to use a tablet computer as long as I could have something 
with real buttons to operate.  Granted, the modern PC has no knobs; but the 
buttons generally carry the same reliability that you can get from knobs 
that you turn.

But for those who want touch, gestures, and all that, I sincerely hope that 
Window-Eyes can someday soon run on such equipment.  For my part, though, 
give me knobs and buttons!
