If I find another I'll let you know. I have an extra one here that was made
specifically for the iPad mini.

Yikes that is way out of my budget! Maybe I'll just go with th Logitech
Keys-To-Go if it is still being made, the trick is knowing which model to get
of that keyboard because last I heard there are two models, one for windows and
Android and another for iOS.
I believe this relates to skype in that I would have to type messages into
the skype chat window of conversations easily with a keyboard than the way I'm
currently doing it right now without my preferred way of typing, that being my
beloved braille display.
Thanks Doc but that one is too pricy on Amazon and Fry's electronics and Best
Buy. Shrug!
Keep in touch,
Chela

Hello I just tested the app version out with NVDA and it reads like what
JAWS reads, again, the app store version which still works relatively well with
screen readers to an extent still has quirks but still is manageable whereas
the desktop version which we all are used to, stopped working for me on both
laptops I own running Windows 10 latest vuild, think it is the creator update
one. I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 when it first came out. I have two
HP laptops: the HPG72 and the HP Probook 6570B models.
It will all take some getting used to that is for sure.
On an unrelated note, can anyone recommend either a foldable or a small
bluetooth keyboard for use with iOS devices running the latest iOS update? I
own an iPod Touch 5th generation and an iPhone 5s.
I'll be looking to either buy a bluetooth keyboard from either Best Buy
or Fry's Electronics or Amazon in the USA. The reason why I'm asking is that I
normally use my braille display but it is our of commission right now and I
need something to help me type fast comfortably. The screen is my friend up
until I start typing. LOL!
Thanks for any recommendations. Even trifoldable keyboards would work for
me as well. One requirement is that I would need keys to be distinct and I need
to feel comfortable typing, I wouldn't want a keyboard that looks like the
T-Mobile Dash, for those who might remember what that looked and felt like, but
to those who don't know, it looked like a mini calculator and all the buttons
were tiny and the spacing was so small.
Again, thanks for any recommendations. I'm looking in the $20 through $50
range if that helps any.
Thanks much.
Chela

Well, I've been playing around with the app version of the Skype
program and surprisingly it is manageable with JAWS but as with mainstream
programs that are not specifically tailored to screenreader technology, it does
possess quirks and the interface takes some getting used to and as far as the
desktop app goes, on my HPG72 windows waptop that was upgraded to windows 10
once that OS was released, no longer lets me sign into my account and has not
done so for a year, which is weird because it used to work before I upgraded to
Windows 10, so I uninstalled that, yet I'm able to sign in just fine using the
app version of Skype on this and my HP Pro Book ^570B windows laptop also was
upgraded to windows 10. So, there you have it. I'm assuming that certain laptop
models won't run the desktop version while the app version will. Just my
personal experience with this, if you would like, I can test NVDA to see how
that works with Skype App, but I can honestly say that desktop version won't
work on both computers anymore with NVDA and JAWS, I'll report back to you how
NVDA does with the app version of Skype if you would like for me to do so. Just
let me know.
Sincerely,
Simpático Trumpeter Chela Robles

Hi,
I think the desktop Version would be available, but with new design.
Microsoft is planning a completely new design of skype. Windows 7 is still
supported and it is use by very much companies, so I don’t believe that the
desktop version wouldn’t available.

Ali
