Many of us here don't have any vision.
If the jestures aren't too complicated, it can be done for a totally
blind person.
Many blind folks are using IOS devices, such as iPads, iPods,
iPhones, and such, and Android tablets and phones are also being used
by blind folks.
I personally don't like the jestures for Android, so I would never
have one again.
I want to see Window-Eyes work on a Windows Tablet even with a touch
screen if the jestures were easy.
If you red Jim's message, he gave some pretty good examples of how he
wants to see Window-Eyes work with a touch screen on a Windows Tablet. <smile>
Thanks much.
Many Blessings,
Pat Ferguson

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!

Hi
probably not, Window-Eyes does not work with touch currently.

Hi:
Can anyone tell me if Window-eyes 8 works on one of those Microsoft
Windows 8 tablets? If so, which tablets does Window-eyes work with
and which ones does it not work with?
