you buy the Belkin Rockstar, costs just as much or more than a good charging

You can also go to the discover tab, choose your network, and watch it there.
That way you can choose from on demand, or watch what is live at that moment.

Hi,
Maybe it depends on whether you use the UEB braille table. In UEB, the first
word that is in all caps starts with 3 dot 6s. I don't remember how you end an
all caps block of text in UEB though.
Best,

I am using Cox for my service, and you can get something called voice guide.
The only thing it doesn’t read is the apps available. But it is quite

How is that different than just using the standard braille dot 6 twice to

I'll try it on my own; but that sounds like the standard way to do it and

Hi,
There may be a more efficient way to do this, but I think the following will
work:
For each message you want to forward, touch it, flick to More, and double-tap.

Unfortunately, you can't create custom sounds on the watch.
