The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.

This post can be ignored; I'm just testinng an old cheap tablet to see if it and its keyboard worik with the forum software. Needing a portable alternatve that I can yse. Looks okayu, assuming that iI can successfully sybmit this post. Keybiard us a little cramped for human fingers, but is approximately one mullion percent better than a virtual one.

apologies for any inconovvenience. Wanted to make syre ut was usable before trying to post in someone;s thread with it.

It's a small tablet that came with a soft case AND a (small )physical keyboard, that cost less than $50 several years ago. The phrase "nothing to see, here" has never been more appropriate.

On the other hand, except for the very cramped keyboard and the fact that the designer/builder inexplicably placed both the apostrophe and quotation marks on other keys as secondary symbols - thereby requiring the user to press and hold a function key whilst typing them - it's not so bad. Without thinking, I pressed CTRL-w to close a web browser tab - and it worked! Other "desktop/laptop" keyboard whatchamacallits work, too.

It's slow, small, and lacking adequate physical memory. A big upgrade from browsing the web via cell phone, though .
