Description

When typing quickly on a Perkins-style keyboard, typed letters are sometimes missed in certain text fields such as in Mail. This happens with UEB Contracted System and US Braille Contracted System tables. Duplicated on an Orbit Reader 20+, Orbit Writer, Humanware NLS eReader with firmware version 3.0, and the Chameleon 20 running firmware version 2.5

Workaround
