General Details
- Factors to Consider
The word prediction box may distract some users from their writing tasks.
Co:Writer SOLO reduces the number of keystrokes needed to produce a word or sentence. This makes it suitable for people who type slowly, experience fatigue, or access the computer by scanning.
Speech output by the computer assists people with limited literacy/spelling skills to correct word selection.- Maintenance
Refer to the supplier and manufacturer manual for maintenance instructions and safety warnings.
