I hope I did a better job this time around. I recently learned about a product from Orbit Research. It is a very small Bluetooth Braille keyboard called the Orbit Writer. It can remember being paired to 5 different Bluetooth devices at one time. It can also remember 1 USB device. For example, I plan on pairing the Orbit Writer that I just ordered to one iPhone, and two different Windows computers via Bluetooth. The device remembers paired devices so you do not have to waste time pairing every time you want to switch to a different phone, PC, iPod, etc. This pocket size Braille keyboard is around 6 inches wide by 3 inches deep by ½ inch thick It is not a Braille display. It is not even a note taker. It is just a Braille Bluetooth keyboard that one can use to operate all functions on a smart phone and many other devices via Braille input over Bluetooth. I do however, doubt if it would be of much value trying to operate a smart phone camera because one would need to hold the phone in their hands for acurate snap shots. It has a centrally located connection place for a lanyard. When using a neck lanyard, the user can use all functions of their smart phone via Bluetooth while standing in line for what ever. This is of course if the user has their smart phone near by. Like in their pocket, purse, or back pack. They cost $100.00, and they are available at AT Guys, Orbit Research.com, and I think LS and S. Note, AT Guys has a $25.00, TPU snap on case for the Orbit Writer that protects the device like a smart phone case protects a phone. This TPU case has openings to allow the Micro USB port and lanyard connection holes to be accessed. And, the top is open so the user can make use of the Perkins style keyboard and the navigation ring that controls fast forward, rewind, up and down. And there is a button in the middle of the ring that performs multiple options. All of the positions on the ring also perform different options depending on what you are doing. I primarily plan on using my iPhone as a note-taker, and to do email and things on the internet. It can control all smart phone or iPod and PC functions without any swipes or taps. Anyway, I am posting this in case some one is interested. And, I am very curious to find out if any of you have heard of the Orbit Writer? I think it was released back in August of last year. I think by an Australian company. Here is an AT Guys link for the Orbit Writer: Hello list, I recently learned about a product from Orbit Research.
