hi folks.
I just wonder, and many here have asked, so I thought I'd ask you in
this group.
What's the benefit for blind people to have an iPad instead of an
iPhone?
I mean, as far as I can see, the difference is only the screen size...
Am I right?
Actually I'd like to have one myself, but I can't f
let's compare the iphone 4s against an ipad 3...
first off, the obvious feature is a much larger display on the ipad. this as a
feature gives you much more room to work on applications. taking into an
example of pages or anything like that. try performing those tasks on an iphone

You are limited to the USB devices you can attach. However, the most
significant difference is the interface of apps. There are certainly situations
where having the larger real estate can make a difference and conversely less
real estate can be advantageous . The whole issue will come do
Hi,
I think all this really boils down to, does the screen real estate make the
apps more fluid in their use, and you seem to say yes. Me, I'm not so sure. I
honestly believe this is completely subjective, and also depends on what kind
of apps your using. For example, garageband is much more
this debate on touch screen size has re-awoken my desire for apple to unleash
an upgraded macbook pro with a touch screen interface. would absolutely love
it. would be great for manipulation, especially with CAD work, etc.
I do agree here with the aspects of working between the ipad and iphone.
Yes, they have the same operating system, but in some tasks I find iPad more
intuitive to use. For example, in Mail, you can just select an e-mail on the
left side of the screen and you find the text on the wright one. You don't need
to go back and fourth. the same thing ocures on notes, where y
the iPad has more computing power and also uses a solid state drive. that and
its greater battery life make it an excellent portable device.

For me, the fact that the IPad has a larger display is both a blessing and a
curse. I have never been friends with the IPad because when i try navigating on
it, it misunderstands my gestures so if i swipe to a side, it thinks i want to

Hi,
it really doesn't. I mean, the iPad and the iPhone 4S are both running 1.0GHZ
dual core processors. The main difference the GPU is quad core. But that
won't make the iPad faster as far as launching apps or anything like that. Its
for handling all those pixels. lol. And the extra half a

Hi folks,
responding to a couple of comments here.
First the nfb and acb do not talk much to each other, they are hardly going
to unite on this, especially with some in their camp benefiting in a way
from the issues, they can still sell their own products at high process

Hi,
until the bug is fixed, you can press FN + F1 to turn down the screen
brightness and FN + F2 to turn it back up. Note: if using a Macbook, turning
brightness to 0%, will turn off the screen. No one will be able to see
anything. This is not the case with iMacs and Mac minis.
