Hi Jeff, from the looks of things it seems that you were typing your message in Grade II Braille, which is fine, but you need to be aware of a couple of things. First, the delay that you experienced has more to do with IOS's on-the-fly Grade II to text translation than a problem with the Apex. Second, when you do type your messages in Grade II, beware of (a) using Nemeth code when writing numbers as Nemeth 2 which gets translated to bb, Nemeth 3 to cc, Nemeth 4 to dd et cetera, and (b) pausing too long on any given letter which IOS may interpret as a contraction. Case in point: the word "canurious" in your message below. In short, when typing in Grade II, be darn tuick about it. If precision is what you're after and you're prepared to spend a little extra time, do a g chord to turn contractions off, then write your missive in Computer Braille. That is exactly what I did when I replied to your post. Oh, and just so you know, the quirks that you experienced have been around for quite some time, at least a couple of years, and probably won't change any time soon. We Braille users just have to be a little extra careful because of the on-the-fly translation. I love using my Apex with my iPhone 5s, quirks notwithstanding, and I'm sure you'll come to really enjoy it too.
