Oh, that's good. I'm tempted to get it. I really do love my Braille display, but sometimes I just want to type using a QWERTY keyboard and not have to worry about iOS's weird Braille translation issues/quirks. I've never been able to get anything to pair with my computer, however, which is the only place I would use the keyboard besides my iPhone. Oh, well. That's a Windows thing, and thus not relative to this list. Anyhow, thank you for the information. It's really appreciated.
