Dear friends,

We are looking into purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or mini iPad tablet for our
daughter who is twelve. I would like your feedback on the differences among
these options for schoolwork as well as for general use. We have looked at
some of the available applications, and wow!

It seems to me that the devices have mostly the same functions. I use an
iPad, and I like the screen size for reading. For a blind user, what is the
advantage of an iPad, if any? I would think the smaller size of the iPhone
would be a big advantage for portability.

Please respond about your own experiences.

Sincerely,
Joy Orton
