Amy, just how do you type? Do you use one hand or two, one finger or two? Do you use landscape or portrait? If you are able to type that well on the screen I am interested in how you do it. I'm sure willing to give it a try and see if your method works for me!

I do like the fact that I can type completely by touch without voiceover and that I can truly use my phone, without the need of lugging around a Bluetooth keyboard and that I can type 60 WPM on my iPhone. Yes I make them and sell them, so this may seem a bit not quite objective, but we all used them and gave them away for testing prior to selling them. If they hadn't taken off, we'd have no company. They aren't for everyone which is quite true, but then again, neither is an iOS device. *smile* It's nice to have choices. I love my bluetooth keyboard, especially if I'm sending a lot of very long emails, but it's not a need anymore because of the overlay. It's $7. Most would spend that on a meal or something, so the price point is affordable where keyboards cost much more. Amy Billman Check out my company for your screen protector and phone accessory needs!

I bought both, one with lots of dots and one with few; tried and took them off pretty soon and didn't use them since. You feel about a bit to start with, but you get good at hitting the right spot after a while, like a good pianist does. And if you neeed to write that much, most get a real BT keyboard and type on that. Given the price of those overlays, and the starting price of a BT keyboard; you're half way towards the real kb for the cost of those bits of cutout plastic. BGut each to their own; the TypeInBraille has complicated this question a bit too as some have got quite efficient typists on that and transfer the text to the necesssary app after they wrote it. They might be good for an absolute novice, but most soon grow out of them and it has been argued that starting on them only creates the dependence they wouldn't otherwise have if they learnt from the beginning as-is so to speak. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arnold Schmidt" <arno...@mindspring.com> To: <viphone@googlegroups.com> Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 11:26 PM Subject: Tactile Screen Overlay, Or Not? I was talking to a coworker today, who recommended that if I get a phone, I get one of the tactile screen overlays. He said it makes it a lot easier for him to know where to touch the screen. I realize that opinions are probably as numerous as the number of people asked, but I thought I would ask anyway. If you have one, as you have gotten use to using your phone, has it gotten in the way more than helped? If so, is it easy to get off the phone? Thanks for any opinions.
