This sounds interesting, I'm guessing this is a bluetooth device? How much does it cost? On Feb 14, 2014, at 8:17 AM, Buddy Brannan wrote: Hi, I'm glad that Mobience is posting about this now. I have one of these myself (thanks to Mobience), and, while the manual might look

It is $129 USD if my memory is accurate. It is bluetooth. Reading through the online manual, I was struck with how short the battery life is in the unit. I think the manual stated seven or eight hours of battery life. For the cost, I would expect it to be closer to the battery life one gets

It's 10 hours continuous, and I've gotten a week, at least, of light use. Bear in mind that that's 10 hours of continuous use, not 10 hours of normal use. It goes into sleep mode after 10 minutes, so that 10 hours is, in practical terms, quite long, as I doubt anyone will be writing War And

Try doing a VO-m when the recovery HD comes up. There should be a Utilities menu. If you go down it, you'll find, Terminal, there. Let me know if I misunderstood you though. Take Care John D. Panarese Director Mac for the Blind Tel, (631) 724-4479 Email, j...@macfortheblind.com Website,

Hi, The Logitech does not have these keys. Actually, what you might be after might well be a keyboard with a numpad, then you can use keyboard navigation. Seriously, for the price, I wouldn't worry though, when you think about it, letter keys get pressed far more, and there's always quick nav
