[stylist] I-Pad VS Tablet Wondering if anyone knows

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

They just run on different operating systems, so how you use and manipulate
will be a little different. There's more technical stuff, but I'm not the
one to ask, grin. I really only use my IPad for entertainment purposes. I
prefer my PC for writing and even web surfing. I'm use to using my laptop
and JAWS, and not being a tech savvy person, learning new devices isn't
always easy. But some people have made the switch to Apple products and love
them. One thing to keep in mind, I spoke with several tech advisors who said
that when it comes specifically to editing in a word processor, sighted or
blind, Apple's systems are not great. So for what that's worth...

Subject: [stylist] I-Pad VS Tablet Wondering if anyone knows

Hi everyone. I'm wondering if anyone can explain, as a user, if we get the
tablet with full  windows, what's the difference between it and an I pad? I
know one is apple and one is mycrosoft. I don't meant the technical
difference. I mean why one is easier, better, whatever than another for
different people's preferences. Either way I am not at all in love with the
touch screen for typing so I'll use a wireless keyboard for heavy typing.
The comp instructor we're working with thinks that I device are generally
easier to use for the blind. Not a computer, he likes windows for that, but
for generally smaller device, but I wasn't' sure what made it different and
wanted other people's thoughts.
