Good evening folks, Just a note on the braille touch, which is very much easier to use when altering the keys in "advanced settings" so that the keyboard becomes like a Stainsby.
A Stainsby predates the Perkins and was noisy and relatively primitivbe, however my brief experience with it makes the braille touch very much easier. I use the braille touch with the phone lying flat with the home button to the right. Dot 1 is now made with my left ring finger and dot 6 with my right index finger. I can get a reasonable speed with this method although 100% accuracy has never been my forte, irrespective of qwerty or braille keyboards. I look forward to the grade 2 update.
