Caleb, all of the discussion about Braille Touch has the user holding the phone in this special way. I see how that will work, but Is it also possible to take the phone out of its case and lie it flat on a hard surface? Why would that also not work?

A case will help you grip the phone from the sides with both hands. 2. On the iPhone the speaker is under the Home button. A case will help keep your hand from blocking the speaker, if you use the speaker and not headphones. (The speaker location on the iPod touch is not an issue.) 3. A case will help orient your fingers on the screen when you are typing. It may work for you without a case. Please try the app with the free version first.

But I don't think you need to be stationary either if you mean sitting down somewhere; i think i can do it standing or walking somewher where I am familiar with my surroundings and not needing to use my cane. But then I don't type anyway without these factors. I'm not typing on the virtual keyboard or pulling out my bluetooth keyboard in situations where I'd have to balance them while trying to get somewhere though I'm sure some have the skill to do this. Dictation also has its limitations in a noisy environment so whatever you do, there are limitations. That's why it's good there are several options. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
