I have used that short sections at a time method for a while, but still can't do much good with punctuating it. UK uses different terms for a start, and then as oft as not, it will spell out comma or full stop or whatever, leaving a big editing issue. There are times when a real keyboard helps no end. Even a Nokia-style phone pad one could get used to,... again. Working something that inefficient is not that inefficient if one can do it reliably.
I've still not found a dedicated bluetooth brl keyboard without buy a full note taker costing $k's. Help with verbalising punctuation would be a great help.

When I choose to use dictation, I always reread my messages. I only use it when I don't have my braille device handy and I'm too lazy to go get it, or when I'm not up for writing using MBraille. I'll admit that it's handy sometimes, especially if you're in a hurry. Siri's best only for very short texts. Dictation within APPS is much more efficient, and that two-finger double-tap is so convenient. Siri's best for getting local temperature or checking sports scores. Naturally that's just my own personal opinion. Peace & Blessings, Pastor Duane L.
