is connected to the Gmini . The computer keyboard is easier to use. Often times, however, you are
not near your computer and you would like to enter the text directly with the Gmini . For this, you
will use the virtual keyboard. You will be taken to this screen when you rename a file or folder or
when you name a recording.
