I have, use, love and adore my Mac Book Air 11in, I know many iPad users who now have both the iPad and the 11in Air, and they say that quite often they will opt to use the Air, simply as it has a physical keyboard. these are both sighted and low vision users. personally, I have both too, and g

Hi Denise, The original iPad does have a USB drive. The iPad 2 does not. I would suggest that you think about how exactly you want to use this device. For games? For media? For writing? Would having a physical keyboard be desirable or not? You can think of the MacBook Air as a scaled down

Hi again! Hmm, delete silence only works on the start or at the end of the file sadly. I wish they would do something about that, so we could tell Amadeus to remove silence e.g. at -45 db and if it is longer than 0.5 miliseconds and then it could keep about 0.2 miliseconds of the original s

I tell you what I want. I want a way to go directly to a marker and remove that marker without having to go in to the marker menu from the windows menu. Another thing. I have never ever gotten the delete silence to work at all. It makes no difference how I set each and every setting.

Michael, Not sure exactly what your saying here; however, VZW is not pulling a bait and switch really. THey are doing exactly what AT&T did, but in considerably less time. VZW is concerned about data hogs, but gee their network according to them can handle anything. Aside from that, it really i

Hello! I am trying to figure something out in Amadeus. It's like what you want to do. First of all let me explain how you select a specific track (or at least how I got it to work): 1. Open each file you want to use in your podcast. 2. They will come up as stand-alone-windows. What you need to do
