Re: iPad Air Question
I have the iPhone 5 and the iPad Retina or whatever the one just before the air is. Mostly my sighted husband uses the iPad and the larger screen size is good for him. However, he is totally ignorant electronically so I have to set up everything for him, explore the apps and generally use the iPad. I find that many basic apps are laid out differently and are very confusing and difficult to use. I could not type very well on it at all until I got the speed dots screen protector. It was worth the high price. I even bought the blue tooth keyboard to use with it. One problem to me is the large size. I am used to the placement of items on my phone and it is a much different reach on the iPad. I have not found anything that can be done on the iPad that I can't do better on my iPhone 5. If my husband was not enjoying reading iBooks and playing some games on it I would consider it a huge financial waste. Maybe I would like the mini better but if you have an iPhone and are blind I really feel the iPhone is much easier to use and much more portable. Of course I have a 64g iPhone so have room for lots of stuff. Just my personal opinion. Sherrie -Original Message- From: RobH.

But proportion is the key word, big device means big screen and does require bigger gestures. I guess the firmware or ios calculates the significance of gestures by proportion of movement so that it works sensibly on all of them regardless of size. iPad range puts more on the bigger screen since there's room forit, so get used to the idea of having more to look for or find on them. Web, windows and most other platforms have the concept of main area of screen and sidebar like a menu, often a top bar with options, and so on; so you get all this, insteadof burrowing down layer by layer in the small devices. So it's more sophisticated, or complicated to get used to, and so much more convenient when you do.

Re: iPad Air Question
Chris, is there any reason why some controls may be at the top of the screen on the iPad verses the iPhone and on the bottom of the screen on the iPhone? I understand that the iPad air has a much larger screen then does the iPhone 5s. What I'm not understanding is why would the buttons be at the top of the screen on one device and on the bottom of the screen on the other. Are there going to be those sorts of differences often? Is this going to be like a totally different experience then that of the iPhone 5s? Are there any members out there with both an iPhone 5s and an iPad Air who can give me an over view of any differences between the layout on the screens of both devices. Sorry for my confusion here. I suppose I'll find out soon enough either way as my wife and I should be getting the air today. Regards, Alan Teenagers; Tired of being harassed by your stupid parents? Act now! Move out. Get a job.

Re: iPad Air Question
I hadn't thought about typing on the air with my hands. That should make it easier then to type on the air as it's larger. My kids are both sighted and in their youth. They do this thing with typing with their thumbs. My son says get with the program dad and get out of the stone age! So you can see from that why I like my tag line so much. I'm not usually a tag line fan but that one was to good to pass up. Thanks to all for their comments and help.

Re: iPad Air Question
Joanne, thanks for this. I'm getting the hang of it here. My first thought was so the iPad air has a larger screen then the iPhone 5s so all it will mean is everything will just be larger like watching a 13 inch TV and then watching it on a 48 inch TV. It didn't occur to me that the larger screen could be drawn to make better use of the information being presented. As was said, I won't have to drill down through as much. because it will already be there. Hopefully, it cuts down on the flicking and such. Thanks so much!

RE: iPad Air Question
I prefer typing on the smaller iPhone screen rather than the iPad. That said, with Siri available to take dictation, typing should be less of an occurance if that is one’s preference on the newer iPads. I find it easier and faster to glide across the keyboard with one finger or thumb on the phone. Whereas on the iPad, you have to go hunting for letters and symbols. That and with the iPad you’ll quite nearly always need two hands while with the phone, it’s a one handed device. Ultimately though, it’s a question of personal preference.

Re: iPad Air Question
Hi Penny, In contacting the ATT store, it's amazing how many of them are out of stock. The iPad Air we want is the 128 GB model with both WI-FI and Cellular data. We do travel in our motor home and you can usually find WI-FI but it's in cities or large towns. However, in the country or farm lands etc, your more likely to find only cellular. Some times when your really out in the sticks, you cant get either but even at almost a thousand bucks, they are still low or out of stock. So the ATT stores don't open up for another half hour but we'll see. I'm not crazy about ordering it online when I can just go pick it up in the store. We'll see. My thanks to all those who so kindly shared with me their experiences. I appreciate it very much. Regards, Alan Teenagers; Tired of being harassed by your stupid parents? Act now! Move out.

I'm still learning about it. The keyboard, in particular, is somewhat different from the keyboard on my IPhone. For example, the at-sign (@) is next to the M on the Letters keyboard. And, the location of the indicator for how much the IPad is charged is on the very far right across from the time - a little different from where I find the charging info on my IPhone. I'm looking forward to using the IPad Air for reading, but I haven't managed to find a book on BARD yet, although I had no problem locating two books I bought from Audible.com a couple of days ago and beginning to read one of them. Enjoy your new IPad! Penny On 1/4/14, Joanne Chua shuang.an...@gmail.com wrote: Yes, just like what Sieghard said. Also, when you said keys and buttons will be in different places, in some cse it will be different places. for example, you got twice as much space on the keyboard than on the iphone if not more, and the gab between apps will be wider from one to another. Some apps lay out will be different from the ipad and iphone. Some apps use containers on the ipad more so than on the iphone. As far as the differences between mini retina and the air is concern, it is really, the size. With my experience on trying both ipad air and the mini retina, i don't see much different in speed. If it does might be some milisecond different. I honestly don't believe it though. considering they both using the same processer and everything, the only explaination that i can think of that might slow down the mini retina a bit will be the retina screen.

Re: iPad Air Question
Alan, we looked at the iPad air before we got our many. The iPad air has a larger screen. I believe it's 9.7 inches. I believe that's the major difference between the air in the mini. The mini is also a little lighter for my wife, it was easier for her to use.

Re: iPad Air Question
Shear size! they probably take up the same proportion of the glass on all devices, indeed some of the new ones have working screen so much closer to the outside edges than before. But proportion is the key word, big device means big screen and does require bigger gestures. I guess the firmware or ios calculates the significance of gestures by proportion of movement so that it works sensibly on all of them regardless of size. iPad range puts more on the bigger screen since there's room forit, so get used to the idea of having more to look for or find on them. Web, windows and most other platforms have the concept of main area of screen and sidebar like a menu, often a top bar with options, and so on; so you get all this, insteadof burrowing down layer by layer in the small devices. So it's more sophisticated, or complicated to get used to, and so much more convenient when you do.

Re: iPad Air Question
True! Mrs and I both started on full size iPads, found them a bit big to use just in the hands; the Mini is about the ideal size for armchair use.

The iPad air has a larger screen. I believe it's 9.7 inches. I believe that's the major difference between the air in the mini. The mini is also a little lighter for my wife, it was easier for her to use.

Re: iPad Air Question
Yes, just like what Sieghard said. Also, when you said keys and buttons will be in different places, in some cse it will be different places. for example, you got twice as much space on the keyboard than on the iphone if not more, and the gab between apps will be wider from one to another. Some apps lay out will be different from the ipad and iphone. Some apps use containers on the ipad more so than on the iphone. As far as the differences between mini retina and the air is concern, it is really, the size. With my experience on trying both ipad air and the mini retina, i don't see much different in speed. If it does might be some milisecond different. I honestly don't believe it though. considering they both using the same processer and everything, the only explaination that i can think of that might slow down the mini retina a bit will be the retina screen.

Re: iPad Air Question
Hi, I got the IPad Air for Christmas. I'm still learning about it. The keyboard, in particular, is somewhat different from the keyboard on my IPhone. For example, the at-sign (@) is next to the M on the Letters keyboard. And, the location of the indicator for how much the IPad is charged is on the very far right across from the time - a little different from where I find the charging info on my IPhone. I'm looking forward to using the IPad Air for reading, but I haven't managed to find a book on BARD yet, although I had no problem locating two books I bought from Audible.com a couple of days ago and beginning to read one of them. Enjoy your new IPad! Penny On 1/4/14, Joanne Chua shuang.an...@gmail.com wrote: Yes, just like what Sieghard said.
