I agree with pretty well all of this - I came to one conclusion, well, another conclusion really; if you think about fingers to dots; or just the one, first finger left is dot1; the rest follow naturally after that. Think about holding it and phone orientation, and confusion sets in. I tried the flipped setting, got it pretty well, then switched it back; like I said, so long as I'm thinking first finger left is dot1, it just works. Done a ton of texting on a noisy bus earlier, something I never do, couldn't do, could never hear the letters spoke as I groped for them. This way, you just hit it and it's done. So efficient, and to think I've not typed braille since at school, I'm over 60 now!
Rh, Still not doing this with it mind! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan Paganelli" <alanandsuza...@earthlink.net> To: <viphone@googlegroups.com> Sent: Friday, February 01, 2013 8:05 PM Subject: Re: brailletouch Patti, I had trepidations about this app too but the developer has obviously foreseen this problem. The free version lets you try it out and fool around with it so you can get your feet wet so to speak. Think positive! <grin> Keep saying to yourself, I think I can-I think I can-I think I can! <grin> It feels strange at first because the brain is saying hey idiot, your holding a phone not a brailor! LOL! Then the brain takes over and says hold the phone here, pun intended, the I think I can thing a few more times and in about 10 or 15 minutes your thinking, hey this is faster then typing on the virtual keyboard and the rest is history. Flecksy was the app of the year according to A T Guys but I suspect Braille Touch will be the winner for 2013.

I don't type fast on the phone anyway, but I think it is a wonderful idea. Congratulations to the developer for an app that is meeting with great success already.
