do you not know anyone with a Bluetooth keyboard that you could try out? how
about even going to one of the large stores just to see you one of the
Bluetooth keyboard is and then you could at a later stage purchase from Amazon.
some people like it very small pockets size and others want a full size one.
some people want ones with rechargeable batteries and others want one which is
cheaper just replacing the ordinary batteries from time to time. I just feel it
is such a personalised choice and difficult to recommend but it has to be said
at the very expensive Apple magic keyboard is absolutely excellent. I also have
a Logitech ultra-thin keyboard for an older model of iPad and again it was
around £70 but is excellent. both of these keyboards have rechargeable
batteries. The Logitech K7 160 is quite large and quite heavy and it is not the
type you would be throwing in your bag going out, however it does not have any
battery but simply relies on daylight to keep its mechanism working. when I
purchased it it was £27 but probably could cost more now. The cheaper Amazon
mine at £10 I did not like and gave away to somebody. it used the ordinary
batteries but I did not like the battery cover and after dropping it on one
occasion the cover off and I never found it! I also found it fiddly to connect
to Bluetooth but not impossible. The others were very straightforward. you
might also find a Bluetooth keyboard and Steve Nutt's computer room services
page.

There’s another Logitech which came up on discussion on this or another list
recently. Searching Amazon for Logitech keyboard for iPad should find it.

Apple magic Bluetooth keyboard about £89. then there is then Logitech K7 160
which I bought a long time ago for £27. even the Amazon Bluetooth keyboard
for £10 is suitable.

buy for an iPad for a totally blind person? Thanks in advance, Janet
