Dear List,
I was typing something in a room where everyone else worked in silence
and I realised that the sound of the keys are actually quite loud and
may be disturbing to others. I have a bt. The Braille-and-speaks had a
setting where one could choose to have silent keys or clicking keys when
writing.
I would like to see something done about the keys as well. I have a QT and
when typing in a university class lecture setting I can hear the clicking
of the keys as well. The other night in a class of about 200 people the
keys were loud enough that I had to ask the girl next to me if the keyboard
was annoying her. fortunately It was no problem in this case. I also notice
when making lecture recordings you can really hear these keys in the
recording. It would be nice to see something done about this. The couple of
laptop keyboards I have looked at lately are much quieter. One of them was
an Acer laptop of some kind if I am not mistaken.
