[JASON ALAMILLO]

Hello, thank you for all your help. Yes, I do have a BrailleNote touch, and I did get some of that, although you did give me some ideas.

This way, you would still be using Voice-Over, but rather than relying on its speech you'd be navigating with the Braille display. (If you already have an iPhone, the Braille display commands with an iPad are largely the same).

I have to write up a justification draft for my assistive technologist for why the iPad would be helpful for me. What I need from my fellow students, or from any TVI or anyone else who wants to have any input, is to list any ideas or suggestions to put down on how an iPad would be beneficial in a college setting for blind students. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
