Containers are areas of the screen that contain groups of controls. For 
example, your status bar is in one container, and below it is another container 
with the text of a document. Below that is the dock in its own container. On 
the iPad, you have to interact with containers, similar to "zooming in" as a 
concept. The Mac Os uses very similar concepts with Voiceover.

  I hope i am familiar with containers, but i don't think the problem i had was 
with them. As soon as you go over a container border there's a special beep, 
for example when you go to the virtual keyboard there's that beep. No the 
problem i had was in swiping, i got forced back to where i left off and 
sometimes the ipad or rather voiceover on it would do other commands like 
reading a character  when in character mode and so on. I kept going down or up 
as i went sideways.

    Are you sure your problem is swiping, or is it perhaps that containers are

    confusing you? There are gestures for moving focus to containers, or you can

    also move focus by touching on the left or right part of the screen. Are you

    familiar with containers?

    Hi, But how about my question on navigating? Is the Mini easier to navigate

    on than the Air or the other bigger pads? The problem i had was that i

    couldn't swipe because i didn't manage to swipe in a streight line so other

    commands got issued instead. Anyone think this sounds familiar?

      Hi Feliciano,

      I understand why you might say that but I respectfully disagree.  I am

      completely blind and I have both a iPhone and a iPad.  There are

    definitely

      situations where the ability to display more information on the screen at

      one time is beneficial, even for a Voice Over user.  I especially find

    this

      to be true in the reading apps, like iBooks, Kindle, and Voice Dream.  I

      also like being able to fit longer lines and more lines on the screen when

      working in notes or a text editor.  A iPad certainly isn't for everyone

    but

      it isn't quite as simple as saying "a iPad isn't beneficial for a

    completely

      blind person using Voice Over".

      Thanks,

      Scott Duck

      And iPad isn't really beneficial for totally blind person that uses

      voiceover. Especially if that individual has an iPhone. The larger screen

    on

      an iPad just makes things more complicated than using an iPhone or iTouch.

      Clients always ask me this question. I always tell them an iPhone is the

    way

      to go if you are totally blind as the larger screen makes things

    difficult.

        Hi,



        The sad truth is that I hardly use my iPad at all. NB: this won't

        change when the next iPad is announced unless they shrink it down to

        the size of an iPhone which isn't going to happen for reasons that are

        hopefully obvious.



        I find browsing the internet to be more pleasurable on an iPad than it

        is on an iPhone as I'm into feeling the layout of pages, but I still

        use a computer for this sort of thing by default. Every now and again

        I'll be out and about for a few days & I'll be without a laptop which

        would be a good oppertunity for my iPad to shine, but I tend to take a

        bluetooth keyboard with me for these trips anyway, so the touch screen

        doesn't get that much use.



        I've purchased two iPads so far with the intent of finding a use for

        them, but for me at least, there isn't really a space in my life for a

        device that isn't a phone or a PC.



        Cheers,

        Ben.

          The beauty of reading archived messages is that most of the follow-up

          questions you may have will most likely have previously been asked

          and answered, which means you don't have to ask the same question and
