Yes, the BT version is great. So, no combination of the function key and some other key with the letter E will do what the space+e does on the BT version? That is too bad. Most blue tooth keyboards made for the Apple devices have a designated button to hide and unhide the virtual keyboard.
So, it sounds like someone with the QWERTY BrailleSense will be better off having a separate blue tooth keyboard for entering text and issuing commands and use the braille for output only.

Best advice I can give is to use the one on the virtual keyboard on the touch screen. If the virtual keyboard is hidden, best of luck getting it unhidden, as there is no touch screen command for this and I don't think anyone knows of a command in conjunction with the function key to accomplish this. This is certainly not something that's ready for prime time. The BT version works fine though. Sadly, who knows if it'll be fixed, since most of this is something that will need to be resolved on Apple's end.
