Good points! I do have the read to go app on my phone and I do use it however I do like my victor stream. I am tending toward the Mac but just wanted to know what people thought. Going from a PC to Mac , how difficult is the learning curve?

I would never replace my computer with an iPad for at least two reasons. I scan books. Can't do that on an iPad. I also don't think the word processors are ready for accessibility prime time on any i-device compared with a pc or even a Mac. The iPad is fine for email and the web etc. But as a content creation device, as a blind person, I don't think it compares with a computer.
