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.

having just looked at amazon all I can see are bluetooth covers and I don’t
really know which to go for. I have a iPad mini so need a bit more
information please. Janet

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
