Hi listers,
What I have heard of a friend of mine is that he has issues with his Handytech
under 10.9.
The braille display won't be found, when he boots from the recovery, braille
goes well.
Anyone else experienced this one? :)
(this prevent me from upgrading to 10.9)

Hi all.
I have just started to use Crome with CromeVox and Voice-Over working at the
same time. The latest version is far more impressive then the previous
versions. Anyone else on the list using Crome?

Hi,
How do you permit your braille cursor to navigate the app without moving the
keyboard or voice-over cursor, or is the voice-over cursor the Brialle cursor?
