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.

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. I do appreciate it muchly! <grin> Regards, Alan Teenagers; Tired of being harassed by your stupid parents? Act now!!!!! Move out. Get a job.

I find it more difficult to type on, although I will say that learning to type an iPhone first help me use the iPad later.

I know one difference is that the iPad uses containers a lot more than the iPhone. I've also heard that some apps lay things out a bit differently on the iPad, such as placing the buttons on the top instead of the bottom. Maybe Alan can clarify that this is the kind of information he's looking for and others who have both an iPhone and an iPad can talk about such differences.

Now as for the two devices together they perform exactly the same as each other, however I heard the mini's processor is slightly underclocked than the same processor on the Air.

I am assuming the screen of the iPad Air is going to be exactly like that on my iPhone 5s is this correct or am I in for a surprise or two? I as of yet have not laid hands on the iPad Air. With all the recent talk of the iPad mini, what if any are the differences between the Air and the Mini? Thanks in advance for any illumination you can shed on my problems.
