[nabs-l] Wanted to share my experience living at Friedman Place, a supportive living community for blind adults in Chicago

Hi there! I believe the iPad has the AutoCorrect feature. I know the iPhone and the iPods have them! They also have a dictation feature. This might be helpful as well!

> thank you.I just have a question since there's a lot of blind people who use an I pad. I'm looking at getting an I pad. I've devised my own accessibility solution in Microsoft Word for typing called auto correct. I use it to write the articles that I write and edit for magazines and newspapers, even in the Braille monitor. I have an article coming up in the May issue of the Braille monitor by the way. I'm happy that I'm looking into blindness publications, as, up until now, I've always published various blindness related reviews, and articles, editorials, essays, and poetry in mainstream publications. It's fun exploitation! Anyway, I have a question about the ipad. I'm looking at getting an ipad and I want to know of the I pad has the autocorrect feature on t. I want to get a dock so that way I will have a full keyboard to type with. I've also been thinking about an IMac but that's just not in the price range right now. Does apple have something like autocorrect in Microsoft Word like when I type C M, D, and hit the space bar to changes it to command? I will be writing for more venues and my laptop is just fine, because I've been working with it professionally for 4 years and I'm worried that the fan in it stops working and then I weep in utter sadness because I won’t be able to write at all. It’s what I do, after all. So if anyone can answer this question I’d really appreciate it. I have auto correct set to where, if I type something short like I T f f, it translates into if the founding fathers… etc. I change them often depending on the article that I'm writing, or email. Thank you very much for any answers you may have. You guys are the best!
