According to FreedomScientific: "A Windows 8 based tablet when combined with JAWS is an extremely powerful yet portable tool for anyone who is on-the-go or looking for a flexible computing solution. It is important when deciding on which device is right to consider the different designs and options. It may be beneficial to take a trip to a computer or electronics store in order to physically hold and examine several types of tablets to find out which one you prefer. The most important thing is to make sure it runs a full version of Windows 8 and not Windows 8 RT. Be sure to examine different styles of keyboards and consider connectivity issues such as how many USB ports are available. For example, if you prefer to use USB headphones and will also use other USB devices such as the PearlR camera with OpenBook, you will need to make sure the tablet has at least two USB slots. If you will be connecting the tablet to an Ethernet cable network you will need to make sure it has an Ethernet port or consider purchasing a USB to Ethernet adapter. Also keep in mind that most tablets do not have a built-in CD/DVD ROM drive but you can get an external USB drive instead. Finally, in order to take advantage of the entire array of JAWS gestures that will be available on the touch screen, you must have a device that supports at least five touch points. Researching these factors ahead of time will insure you get the most powerful yet portable solution."

Subject: Any tablet recommendations Hi All, Sorry for the blank post. I'm considering purchasing a tablet and was hoping for some recommendations. I attempted to search the list archives since I recall this topic being discussed in the past, but wasn't having much success. So what tablets are people using with jaws? Thanks, Kimber _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list Jfw@lists.the-jdh.com http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com
