Re: My First 48 Hours with the RII Mini Bluetooth Keyboard
I had one for a while, and had the issue a little too. I wonder if you can change the repeat rate and whether that is, or could be the issue, having finger on that bit too long. Some things can be quite sensitive like that.

Today, I was in a vehicle, in stop-and-go traffic when I needed to reply to a text message.

Earlier today I stopped by one of those cell phone case kiosk that one can find in shopping malls, and purchased a folio style iPhone case for the RII mini Bluetooth keyboard. I think I paid about $12. Just a little protection for the keyboard and I find that it makes the keyboard even more convenient and comfortable to hold while typing--especially when I'm walking. This is the fourth Bluetooth keyboard I've purchased for use with my iPHone but the first and only one that is hitting on all cylinders, so to speak (smile).

Re: My First 48 Hours with the RII Mini Bluetooth Keyboard
I've had similar issues and believe that iOS is more at fault then the keyboard hardware. I used an Android phone for about a month with the same mini keyboard I had on iOS and had a lot fewer issues with repeating keys.

Re: My First 48 Hours with the RII Mini Bluetooth Keyboard
I wonder if this RII mini keyboard supports swedish keyboard layout since it is different from the american/english one? Does the documentation or web site if any say anything about that? It could be interesting to know although i'm actually against using keyboards other than the on-screen one, it's yet another clumsy device to carry with me. At least my policy is to thoroughly learn and use the on-screen keyboard before getting an external one, otherwise you risk to get smoked so to speak if the battery of the keyboard runs out in the middle of nowhere. Anyways this is beside the point. /Krister 11 aug 2014 kl. 07:28 skrev M.

Re: My First 48 Hours with the RII Mini Bluetooth Keyboard
I tired of bt keyboards as yet another gadget, took up mBraille as I could type fluently on that and transfer my text when done. That supports swedish for sure. Ok, fairly sure.

Re: My First 48 Hours with the RII Mini Bluetooth Keyboard
Hi, You might like to try Fleksy VO (the VO being for voiceOver), free, from the App Store. It mimics most of the keys of a QWERTY keyboard on the phone screen, and produces click sounds in responds to key presses. then there are More... tabs, with Numbers, letters, Symbols, etc. it's fast. Also has a dictionary or 'predictive text' type feature. - Original Message - From: Mich Verrier mi...@eastlink.ca To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, August 11, 2014 11:23 AM Subject: Re: My First 48 Hours with the RII Mini Bluetooth Keyboard i found that the keys on this bt keybord were to small for my fingers to type compteribley. right now i am typing on my laptop and like the keys that i am typing on. i would like to find a keybord that i could use to type on that would have bigger sise keys on it but would be still small in size. i also have no problum typing on the phone how ever i mainley use dictation since it is easier and plus i find for me at least that i am slower in typing on the phone then say on a keybord. i have m braille but never got the hang of typing on it. from Mich. - Original Message - From: RobH! bobs...@googlemail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, August 11, 2014 5:36 AM Subject: Re: My First 48 Hours with the RII Mini Bluetooth Keyboard I tired of bt keyboards as yet another gadget, took up mBraille as I could type fluently on that and transfer my text when done.

RE: My First 48 Hours with the RII Mini Bluetooth Keyboard
I have not seen this, but I would suggest you check out the Braille Pen Slim. This is a Braille keys keyboard. I have been using the BP12 recently, and while the display is smaller than I want, it has been a delight using the Braille for input. I am a very proficient typist and had been very good Braillist, too, but not used Braille over the past 25 years or so; not much, anyway. It was like riding a bicycle. I think I picked up the keyboard much faster than reading. I imagine this BP Slim is smaller than any QWERTY keyboard. It is a bit pricy at around $400, but I do suggest it as a strong alternative for those looking for an external input device.
