Hi,
Depends on the size of tablet. My Bluetooth keyboard that came with my
Acer is smaller then the tablet. My Acer has an 11.6 inch screen.

First a touch screen is a lot smaller then a keyboard. While the keyboard
is my main input device there are just some places I can take the touch
screen that I can't take the keyboard. Second the touch screen offers eas
of use. It gives the user who wants it the ability to find an option on
the screen remember where it is and the next time they want it press it.
it also cuts down on the number of commands that have to be learned. You
do this to work with a menu you do that to work with a button you do this
to move threw a dialog. On the touch screen you flick to what you want
double tap on it or what ever the screen reader chooses to use for an
activation jesture no matter what. I will always be a keyboard user well
for as long as it makes scence to be one but some times touch has its
advantages. It is just another tool in the tool box. Note this is also
coming from a totally blind guy with space and fine moater control
issues. Ah and I am hearing impaired as well. as you can see no worries
your blindness will not get in the way of you enjoying the touch screen
to.

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

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?
