Hi Randy and all,
As I understand it, the device will be configurable such that it can
ignore accidental key presses. It is also possible to use something
other than a finger to interact with the screen. In large part as
far as this device is concerned, we'll have to wait and see but it
does not seem totally hopeless. I do know that once I had a
Microwave on which I placed scotch tape so that I could find the
touch buttons. Others have used braille dymo and I've used loc dots
as well.
