Hi. If you have any, try pairing your bluetooth headphones or speaker to it and a bluetooth keyboard, and see if you can disconnect it from its dock and still be able to operate it.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Kangaroo computer and JAWS 17
Here is some info for those that did not google it: InFocus, an American electronics company has announced the launch of Kangaroo. Size: 124mm length, 80.5mm width, and 12.9mm girth, is roughly the size of a smartphone. It comes with a removable base unit, which has an HDMI port, one USB 2.0 port, one USB 3.0 port, and a DC power port. The device weighs just 200 grams (without adapter and power cord), and even features a Windows Hello fingerprint sensor it is powered by a quad-core Intel 'Cherrytrail' Atom x5-Z8500 processor clocked at 1.44GHz, with a Burst frequency of 2.24GHz. Other features include 2GB of LPDDR3 RAM, and a 32GB of eMMC storage, which you can expand via microSDXC card (up to 128GB) should you need more storage. The battery is suggested to last four hours under "casual use", the portable PC also has a Micro-USB port for charging. I think one can use this port for a headset if your headset is adapted with an adapter female 3.5 to male MicroUSB the Kangaroo runs Windows 10. The mini-PC features Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless connectivity. About a hundred US dollars or 144Canadian including shipping and taxes. I have put JAWS 17 on this and it seems to be pretty peppy. I will be testing it more this weekend to see how it works with docking station and usb keyboard and headset as well as without the docking station using Bluetooth keyboard and Bluetooth headset. Curious I am and so far it seems to be what I was looking for. There is no screen so one has to use the HDMI to connect to screen or IPad. Voice comes through when connected to screen using the HDMI port. However, I just need speakers ( no headphone jack) thus the use of the micro USB port for wired headset may be useful) and a keyboard. Voice commands will be of interest using Microsoft's answer to Apples SIRI. Most important is how jaws will work in this small unit. I suspect for simple applications all will be fine but if one opens up to much then unit may become very sluggish due to the limited 2 gig of RAM. robin -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of David Ferrin Sent: December 31, 2015 8:39 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Kangaroo computer and JAWS 17 I've only been monitoring this thread enough to make sure it is on topic, but I must admit it has got my attention.

The Cangaroo if I recall rightly is a pretty nice outfit that only just recently released.

Since if memory serves it has an internal battery, it'll keep on going while off the dock until you put it back again.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Kangaroo computer and JAWS 17
Hi All, Here are the measurements in inches & ounces: Size: 124mm length = 4.88 inches. 80.5mm width is 3.17 inches. 12.9mm girth / thickness is 0.51 inches. weighs just 200 grams (without adapter and power cord), = 7 ounces Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Kangaroo computer and JAWS 17
Hi. It shouldn't have much trouble with that, it does after all have typical tablet-like specs. Someone I know has one just a bit bigger than a USB flash drive that goes directly into the HDMI port, which he hasn't since he can't see the TV. The Cangaroo if I recall rightly is a pretty nice outfit that only just recently released. It has a dock I believe, does it deal fine with being removed from the dock while running and placed back on it again? Since if memory serves it has an internal battery, it'll keep on going while off the dock until you put it back again. I read that the out of box experience setup process for this device had been modified to work more like setting up a smart tv box would and thus is not typical windows setup. Is this so and if so, were you able to do it with Narrator even though?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Kangaroo computer and JAWS 17
Hi, I had to to have sighted help as it took four hours for windows to update completely. Once done it was easy as as soon as you plugged it into the HDMI video you not only received video you had immediate sound. So to then run JAWS exe was easily done as once the exe was started the setup took over. Hopeing to give this little unit a good testing this week and weekend. robin -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of valiant8086 Sent: December 30, 2015 7:06 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Kangaroo computer and JAWS 17 Hi.
