Yikes that is way out of my budget! Maybe I'll just go with th Logitech
Keys-To-Go if it is still being made, the trick is knowing which model
to get of that keyboard because last I heard there are two models, one
for windows and Android and another for iOS.
I believe this relates to skype in that I would have to type messages
into the skype chat window of conversations easily with a keyboard than
the way I'm currently doing it right now without my preferred way of
typing, that being my beloved braille display.
Thanks Doc but that one is too pricy on Amazon and Fry's electronics and
Best Buy. Shrug!
Keep in touch,
Chela

Hello I just tested the app version out with NVDA and it reads
like what JAWS reads, again, the app store version which still
works relatively well with screen readers to an extent still has
quirks but still is manageable whereas the desktop version which
we all are used to, stopped working for me on both laptops I own
running Windows 10 latest vuild, think it is the creator update
one. I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 when it first came
out. I have two HP laptops: the HPG72 and the HP Probook 6570B models.
It will all take some getting used to that is for sure.
On an unrelated note, can anyone recommend either a foldable or a
small bluetooth keyboard for use with iOS devices running the
latest iOS update? I own an iPod Touch 5th generation and an
iPhone 5s.
I'll be looking to either buy a bluetooth keyboard from either
Best Buy or Fry's Electronics or Amazon in the USA. The reason why
I'm asking is that I normally use my braille display but it is our
of commission right now and I need something to help me type fast
comfortably. The screen is my friend up until I start typing. LOL!
Thanks for any recommendations. Even trifoldable keyboards would
work for me as well. One requirement is that I would need keys to
be distinct and I need to feel comfortable typing, I wouldn't want
a keyboard that looks like the T-Mobile Dash, for those who might
remember what that looked and felt like, but to those who don't
know, it looked like a mini calculator and all the buttons were
tiny and the spacing was so small.
Again, thanks for any recommendations. I'm looking in the $20
through $50 range if that helps any.
Thanks much.
Chela

Well, I've been playing around with the app version of the Skype
program and surprisingly it is manageable with JAWS but as with
mainstream programs that are not specifically tailored to
screenreader technology, it does possess quirks and the interface
takes some getting used to and as far as the desktop app goes, on
my HPG72 windows waptop that was upgraded to windows 10 once that
OS was released, no longer lets me sign into my account and has
not done so for a year, which is weird because it used to work
before I upgraded to Windows 10, so I uninstalled that, yet I'm
able to sign in just fine using the app version of Skype on this
and my HP Pro Book ^570B windows laptop also was upgraded to
windows 10. So, there you have it. I'm assuming that certain
laptop models won't run the desktop version while the app version
will. Just my personal experience with this, if you would like, I
can test NVDA to see how that works with Skype App, but I can
honestly say that desktop version won't work on both computers
anymore with NVDA and JAWS, I'll report back to you how NVDA does
with the app version of Skype if you would like for me to do so.
Just let me know.
Sincerely,
Simpático Trumpeter Chela Robles

Hi,
I think the desktop Version would be available, but with new
design. Microsoft is planning a completely new design of skype.
Windows 7 is still supported and it is use by very much
companies, so I don’t believe that the desktop version wouldn’t
available.

Ali
