Hi Alan
One option to consider is the Aesop talking keyboard which is self-contained,
and would give your friend an opportunity to use it without a computer until he
felt completely comfortable.
I am not advocating this device because my local Society for the Blind sell it,
but was purely thinking of a simple alternative at this stage. It might be
that it wouldn't be suitable because it doesn't attach to a keyboard, but
rather allows the user to learn to touch type.
More info about it can be obtained from Fife Society for the Blind, 01592
583272.

Subject: [access-uk] Screen Keyboard?
Hello List members, I am investigating Keyboard opsions for a elderly friend
who is having trouble learning to use a standard Keyboard[ touch typeing], He
has just enough vision to read the keys,I thought that maybe a mouse controled
screen keyboard may be a possible alternative. I realise that x p includes a
mouse controled Screen Keyboard in the accessibility opsions
I have googled for more imfo re various models etc,,their seems to be quite a
few available.wonder if any one on the list has used a :Mouse controlled Screen
Keyboard,,or could pass some more imfo on to me re,other oppsions,perhaps,
keyboards with larger Keys ?.Thank you in advance. best wishes.Alan
