I actually think the Braille Touch way of typing Braille makes much more sense than the Perkins way. The dots are actually lined up as they appear in the Braille cell. Moreover, they fit on the iPhone screen much better that way and it allows you to hold the device at the same time as typing. If you had six fingers all in a line, how would you hold the device? You would have to put the device down somewhere and this is inconvenient when you're mobile, and being mobile is the main point of an iPhone. I can see how having the dots all in a row Perkins style would make sense on an iPad, but not an iPhone.
I timed myself when I first got BrailleTouch before I had much practice and I was still more than twice as fast as I am using Flexy or the regular touch typing touch screen keyboard. It's brilliant. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
