This morning I did some editing of a file and I kept the adapter plugged in and sure enough it didn't crash but performed normally. In the past, I would have unplugged the adapter and edited my file but within a few keystrokes, it would lock up on me. To fix the issue I found that I need to remove the battery pac for a few seconds and then put it back in and hit the power switch to on and this seems to solve the issue. My guess is that the apex has issues with the power management when switching from AC to DC and this seems to cause issues with the keysoft program. In my experimenting, I found that taking out the adapter plug while the unit is on, then switching the unit off and removing the battery for a few seconds and then putting the battery back in waiting till you here the battery inserted beep, and then hitting the power switch and when you hear the keysoft launch song, then you are safe to go and use. This doesn't mean it won't crash, but this at least illiminates the crashing due to power management.

I like the quietness of the qt keyboard and hopefully these software issues will be addressed in the next update. I've had such errors as this application has encountered an error and must shut down and then the machine just freezes. Another error I get sometimes on my qt is access violation errors at memory location *** and so on. Hopefully these are fixable.

That's HumanWare's fault. Because the QT model doesn't do what I expect it to, I cannot recommend the qwerty Apex and I cannot say the qwerty model is reliable.
