Hello Alex and listers,
I have the newest iPod touch 64 gig. I have tried to pair it with my
apex several times with no luck. The iPod says that the apex, which it
lists, is not compattable. Previously I tried paring them and the iPod
asked for the pairing code and every time I started typing it in it said
pairing failed before I could even finish typing in the zeros. I read the
article on the humanware site and went according to the steps. But, that's
where I ended up. Is there anyone who could help me with this? If need be,
please contact me off list. Thanks very much.
Terry Sanders

Yes. Sorry, I should have mentioned this. VoiceOver comes on the
following:
*any iPod fourth generation
*any iPod third generation that is either 32gb or 64gb
*any iPhone fourth generation
*any iPhone 3GS that is 16gb or above (I could be wrong on this one)
*any iPad, whether first or second generation
As to which works best, VoiceOver will work with all of them the same,
so the apex will never care. However, it is sometimes more convenient
to have an iPad, with its much larger screen, as it lets you feel
around the screen more and makes things easier to find, plus it can
show more at once. Of course, the iPod is much smaller (I often carry
mine in the front pocket of my Apex's case), while the iPhone is much
smaller (same size as the iPod) but can make phone calls, go online
through the cellular network, handle text messages, and so on. In
addition, the iPhone4 is the only one of the line of products to have
a flash for the camera, which can also be used as a flashlight and,
people say, makes OCR and bar code scanning better than the iPod's
cameras or those on the iPad2. I refer you to apple.com for exact
specifications on the devices, since I do not remember all the
details. Please feel free to ask for more clarification on any of
this!

Thanks to all who responded to my previous post. Can you do all
of the below with an iPad or an iPod Touch as well as an iPhone?
Of the three, which works best?
Sorry to post to the list so much today, but I'm trying to figure
all of this out before leaving town tomorrow....

Subject: [Braillenote] Apex and IPhone
Hi everyone,
I will be upgrading to an Apex (BT) this summer and am also
considering getting an IPhone. I know that these devices are
compatible, at least theoretically, and I'm wondering how using
the Apex and IPhone together has worked for others on this list.
Can you use the Apex to control the IPhone or does it only work
as a Braille display? Can you text with the Apex, as long as it's
connected to the IPhone? Can the Apex read text that's been
scanned with the IPhone's camera? Any information would be
greatly appreciated as I decide whether to go ahead and purchase
an IPhone.
Thank you!
Lucy
