On the other hand, if you don’t want to fool with learning windows and NVDA, and you are pretty comfortable with the voiceover commands on the keyboard, you could skip the iPad Pro, purchase the 9.7 inch regular iPad not pro, that just came out this year, and get by for a few hundred dollars less than you would if you purchased a pro. The good thing about having two devices is that you don’t blow the battery out of just the one, and end up needing battery when you don’t have any. I agree that the larger screen and the different way that some abs look is a pain, as richard noted. But if you really don’t have any experience with windows and screen reader there, that is a serious learning curve. So I would think twice about just going that way. I can’t remember if you said you did have or did not have windows experience.
