Hi!
OK a couple of points here!
If in a room with the Mac version someone says to get more info about something
to press like F6 that side of TC does not work in the Mac version!
And to speak in a room when you've got your VO cursor on the Talk button all
you need to do is press the space bar [do

Hi. I recently received a note from a friend in which I was told about

Hi Mike,
The latest version of Hangouts is extremely usable with all functions labeled

up with some lag on older devices. It supports voice and audio calls between up

Hi Gigi. I think from what I've heard in the Diphone list, when direct typing
is enabled, Voiceover won't wait until you lift your finger to type a
character. I don't think I'll use it because I make a lot of mistakes. Lol.

Hi,
Direct touch typing works like this. And it took me a while (and someone else's

If you've got a *really* good grasp on the keyboard, or have some usable

Essentially, when you tap a key, the key types. And by 'tap", I mean a r
Hi there
Actually, this appears to work very similar to embryo. I was very fast with
embryo, but I must be doing something wrong because I can't make the keyboard

wrong to make this thing work?
For one thing, I think

You have to enable speech in Fleksy and turn off VO for Fleksy to
work. It's awkward because it leaves you no way to switch to another
keyboard or read anything while you type.

Sounds like the bug in Fleksy makes using it absolutely pointless isn't the

Just to add another perspective to this discussion, I sort of like direct touch
typing. And I think it'll be very fast once one gets used to it, especially in
combination with the predictive typing. Just my $.02, but I'm going to use it
for a while and see how it goes.

I downloaded all the images for all the devices (49 GB) in advance precisely to
