I am currently enjoying a wonderful conversation with the developer of
Blindfold Crazy 8's. For anyone who doesn't know, they're fantastic! They
responded to my question within 2 hours, and are carrying on an honest
conversation with me. It's developers like them that I'll ALWAYS support!
Hi all.
The subject pretty much says it all I guess. I've been desperately seeking
a VO-accessible Spades game for about 2 years now, and I haven't yet found
one. I've emailed developers of the current Spades games out there, and,
if I received a reply at all, the best response I've received
Hi everyone.
I just received, earlier this week, a Harpo BraillePen 12 Touch, and,
although I've been using iDevices since IOS 4, and braille for most of my
life, this is my first time with a braille display, and I have a few
questions.
I got my device paired with no problem. However, when I
Thank you so much Charles and Gina! That did the trick. I need to make sure
my screen is locked, turn on my BP12T, unlock my screen, and it pairs pretty
much immediately. I reverse the steps to unpair/power off my BP12T, and, when
I do that, it doesn’t dump me into help when I unlock my
Hi Alia,
I just asked some questions here about the BraillePen 12 Touch a couple of
days ago. I also emailed Larry Lewis, from Flying Blind, whose info has
been posted on this group a couple of times. He is very helpful!!! In my
email to him, one of the questions that I asked was whether
Hi all, and thanks for the opinions I've gotten so far. Stacey, thanks for
letting me know that the 12 doesn't have any form of routing keys at all.
That makes the decision easy. I'll get the BraillePen 12 Touch. Are there
any problems that anyone has run into with either the 12, or, if anyone
Hi all.
Has anyone used the BraillePen 12 Touch, the one with the routing touch
areas above each braille cell? I'd like to know whether it is worth buying
one to work with my iDevices?
Also, I think the answer is no, but just to double-check, does the
BraillePen 12, not the new Touch version
Thanks for the reply Brian. I did contact the vendor. They actually say that
you can set the BraillePen Touch up as a different braille device and it works.
They say that’s a temporary work-around, but that it works for now, and that
Apple has had the new BraillePen Touch for 6 months now
With either Mint or Check, could I go to the store, run a charge on either
one of my credit cards or my debit card, but run it as a credit and not put
in the ATM code, and then go outside and immediately enter that charge
manually? I ask this because I don't want to wait the 2-3 days that it
Hi Denny and all.
I've developed a way of finding out who the enemies I'll be fighting in a
quest are before fighting. I have/use an iPhone 5, so hope this works for
everyone. You know how, once you've read what the quest is and what the
rewards will be, how it tells you stuff like, Let's
Hi all. I'm a partial, barely, *GRIN* and I use VoiceOver. I'm up to
level 32 on Solara now, and loving it. Tess, I think it was you that said
you'd like to know about the level widths? Let me know if I'm wrong about
who asked. I can tell you that the game starts with a width of 8. At one
Oops! Sorry. I forgot to say that, when the castle levels increase in
width, that goes all the way down to the bottom of the castle. So, even
though our first few levels started at being 8 wide, when we build that
first upgrade level that adds a +2 wide, but no height, that +2 wide goes

I really wish there were more card games. I have tried pretty much every
Spades game, as well as Bridge, Pitch, Hearts, Phase 10, and on and on.
*GRIN* I haven't found any that are accessible. I've contacted tons of
the game developers, asking if they would be willing to consider working on
I too have been hearing a lot about this 12v battery adapter, and have been
eagerly looking for it all over the web site. I also haven't found it.
The 12v power adapter came with my StandScan Pro, as did the 9v battery
adapter, but I haven't been able to find anywhere on the site where I
Hi List,
I'm a VoiceOver user, but I have a student who is a Zooms-only user on an
iPad 4. We seem to be running into the occasional conflict/freeze when/if
we attempt to turn on VO and Zooms at the same time, and, besides, its a
bit of a pain to have to constantly go into the Accessibility
VaShaun,
I'd honestly be very interested in your opinion on the Focus 14 when you
receive it. I'm not sure if that's the way I need to go, especially given
that I'm a ZoomText user and thus don't need the compatibility with JAWS.
I'd mainly be using my braille keyboard/display on my
Hi Erik, and thanks for the info on the BrailleConnect!
No, I don't live on Onterio, or even close, but thanks for being willing to
set up a demo for me if I did. Yeah, one of the things I'm finding while
looking to buy a braille display is that you pretty much have to buy based
on the
Hi all,
I'm looking at buying an iphone 5 as well as a braille keyboard/display. I
need the keyboard/display to be in one single unit, to connect using
bluetooth, to also work with my iPad 2, and to be very small/portable. I've
been looking at the BraillePen 12 or the RefreshABraille 18, but
Thanks for the info! :-) I've been looking at the BraillePen 12 and I
hadn't heard about the HumanWare 14-cell display! I'm going to add that to
my list. *GRIN* Below are the ones that I've been considering. I'd
appreciate any thoughts that anyone has on them.

Sharonda, thanks for the clarification, and thanks for the Essys 14 Kawal.
I knew that if I asked here I could get REAL help. You know, useful help.
*GRIN*
I know that some braille displays are notetakers in and of themselves.
That's not really what I need. I need something more along the
I pretty much haven't used braille since school either, and I don't want to
think about how long ago that was, *GRIN* but I can see where it would
really come in handy for me in meetings so I really want/need to re-learn
computer braille. Sheesh, can you say run-on?!!! I thought I learned
