Granted I intend going back to the start of this thread, but I believe
symphony pro runs better in the iPad, especially for inclusive
composition, or so I recall from another list.

Thanks for your thoughts on blind folks using Ipads, Donna. I've often
wondered about that.
Personally, I've never owned one and have no particular desire to get
one for exactly the reason you cite. I can only see two arguments in
favor:
* Potential superior speakers for better room filling sound. Is
* this a fact? Or just a speculative possibility?
* Some apps will run on Ipad, but not on Iphone. To my knowledge
* this is also false.
So, what's the attraction?
Best,

Hi all,
This is something I’ve been thinking a lot about lately. In a perfect world, I
would buy both a new Mac and a new iPad, but that would stretch my funds a
little more than I want to stretch them. So I’ve been trying to sort out which
device I want to upgrade this year, and which one next. That has gotten me
thinking about why I like my iPad. I do like it, there’s no question about
that. But as a device, it really doesn’t make much sense. I agree with Joe,
that an iPad is basically just a big iPhone. And, since I can’t see the screen,
there’s really no reason for me to have an iPad in the first place. But even
knowing that, I like my iPad, and am very intrigued with the idea of getting a
newer, faster one. But I can’t really come up with a good reason why.
Everything Joe said in his video is right. The Mac is a much better
proeductivity device, and the iPhone is really all the screen I need. And, it’s
faster than my iPad. So what is it about the iPad that makes me like it? Notice
I’m sitting here drinking my coffee and typing this email on it, not on my Mac
and not on my iPhone.
This is more of a rhetorical post than anything else, but it’s something that
has really come to fascinate me. If anyone else wants to chime in, I’d love to
hear people’s thoughts.
Cheers,
Donna
