WheyHay!...   an iPad version could be rejigged so you type on it like a 
real Perkins style keyboard along one edge, not this peculiar opposite ends 
and back to front thing. Like I said once,   the existing version reminds me 
of the old interpoint stainsby, though guess most of you are far to young to 
remember those.  I couldn't afford one, so only ever learned on a frame and 
style;   so you'd think i'd still be good at writing in mirror image. Worse, 
it was mirror image and right to left! You took the paper out and turned it 
over to read it.  O happy days hah!

Caleb,

Are you planning on releasing Braille Touch for iPad, or is it not possible?
