Re: Orbit Reader 20 Plus
I got this Orbit 20 a few weeks ago. I've been using it with my iPhone and it has been working pretty well. I just got the original instead of the plus. I didn't feel like I needed the alarm and calculator. The calculator I can just ask SIRI the answers I need for math problems. The alarm I understand doesn't make any sound so it wouldn't be of any use since I use alarms to wake up on time and SIRI does that just fine.

RE: Orbit Reader 20 Plus
In reading the documentation, I see no mention of cursor routing keys. Therefore, how do you select items on the screen?

Re: Orbit Reader 20 Plus
It has a arrow pad plus a select so you just use the select to select an item. Example on IOS if your navigating your home screen you would press right arrow once landing on what you want press select. > On May 17, 2020, at 10:33 AM, richr...@gmail.com wrote: > > In reading the documentation, I see no mention of cursor routing keys. > Therefore, how do you select items on the screen? > > From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com > <mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> <mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com>> On Behalf Of Ryan Mann > Sent: Saturday, May 16, 2020 9:08 PM > To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com <mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> > Subject: Re: Orbit Reader 20 Plus > > I got this Orbit 20 a few weeks ago.
