actually yes there is. unfortunitly it don't work with MA very well at all. I should say that under ICS it don't work well with MA. now under gingerbread, maybe it does, I don't know. anyway, there is eyes-free keyboard. this has three modes. hidden, wich means you are not using it at all, navigating, wich is a virtual d-pad, you swipe up to do an up errow, down to do a down errow, left for left, and right for right, and tap the center to semulate the select button. and there is the typing mode. I use this with talkback in ICS very well, and it makes things sometimes easier. sadly under ICS when you switch modes under MA, it just says dot, dot, dot, dot. and when you are in typing mode, as you move across the letters, you just hear dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot. again, not sure what it does under gengerbread, as I don't have a gengerbread phone anymore.

I hope this helps.

Is the D Pad the arrow thing? I hate trying to use MA's virtual keyboard. Is there another option for a virtual keyboard?

this is why several of us would like to see a virtual d-pad.  we know they

don't work in menus, however when this happens, touch exploration works

nicely.  I would honestly love to be able to use MA again as I love there

voice typing. it is easy to use.  however, until  CF actually starts

listening to us, and acutally putting a d-pad in theere screen reader it is

useless. ferthermore, the scienence speach with the prosimity sensor doesn't

work outside of the MA suite of programs in ICS too. if you don't believe

me? go listen to podcast 11 on my ICS page located at

www.jjhof.com/android/ics  <http://www.jjhof.com/android/ics>  and you will see 
what i mean.

I don't see any advantage of using MA with ICS.  I used it with gingerbread

and rather liked it.  With ICS, touch by explore does most things, but every



now and then it is good to have a Dpad in place.  MA keyboard doesn't have

that feature, and MA and Eyes-free keyboard don't play nice with each other.
