Josh, I use iBooks on my phone. I read many books that way, and 
it works perfectly.

On the contrary, it can do things like read text books in iBooks, 
which the iPhone cannot do. I don't know if that would help you, 
but just putting it out there.

 Hi Ian,

 If you already have an iPhone, I see no reason why you need to 
spend additional money on an iPad. An iPad performs essentially 
the same functions as an iPhone, except unlike the phone, it 
doesn't have a built-in app for calls. As far as I know, the only 
benefit of an iPad is that it has a bigger screen, which would 
not be very useful to us.

 Best wishes,
 Sophie

 HI All,
 I have an IPhone, and am thinking about getting an IPad. Is that 
as accessible? Is there a tactile keyboard? Is there a way to get 
a braille display? What have you thought of the IPad? Is it easy 
to use and does it feel like the modern version of a note-taker? 
I’m trying to figure out whether to get one in addition to my 
laptop and IPhone.
