Hi everyone,
As I have mentioned numerous times before on this list, there is
a three-part podcast series on the inns and outs of using the
BrailleNote with iOS devices (iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad)
developed by Alex Hall, which you can find at
braillenoteusers.info/media. Part 1 explains and demonstrates
the initial pairing of the iDevice and the BN via bluetooth,
which is used to start using the BN as a Braille terminal with
the iDevice. Part 2 explains the basic Braille commands that
enable you to control the iDevice using the BN's keyboard. And
part 3 details how to use Safari on the iDevice to browse the Web
with the BrailleNote. These podcasts are very informative, and
will likely answer any new BN and iDevice combo users' questions
about how it works. So I would suggest that everyone who wants
to know how to do this listen to the podcast first and see if you
can figure it out from Alex's explanation first before asking the
list. If you are still having problems or can't figure something
out, by all means post your question here, and we will try to
answer it. But I think the podcasts will help you greatly, and
are a great resource, so please check them out if you want to
learn how to use the Apex as a Braille terminal with iDevices!
Thanks,
Chris

nuisance."
