I have talked with a distributor about this issue, and it is definitely a

happens more when writing in Braille than when reading in Braille, but it

As you use a battery, it slowly loses its capacity, lasting a little less time.
Eventually, it can report the wrong level to your device. Calibrating brings
the battery back in line, so the gauge is accurate. In theory, you don't need
to calibrate an Apple device's battery, but it can't hurt.

I'm going to hazzard a guess, but if use of a BT keyboard reflects the Mac
standard much, then adding shift to navigation key combinations, should
induce slection of that you navigate over. Mac started this, and it spread
to Windows, so it ought, and hopefully does, work here.

I've just been spoiled by the big jambox as it does those things well enough
to overcome my otherwise poor hearing. Even the Mini has a good thump to it
for its size and much more portable of course. Not tried any other bigger
