I know people on another list who carry both an iPhone and an iPad around. I ask, "Why?" While I haven't seen an iPhone 6 plus, I would think that is would be handier to carry 1 device instead of 2. I have known of people who not only carry an iPhone and an iPad, but they also carry a Bluetooth keyboard because they don't like typing on either of the touch screens. Doesn't this kill the portability aspect??

I am seriously wondering about this. I enjoy using all my Mac devices: my macbook Air, my iMac, my two old mac minis - one unable to go further than Lion and one a ppc machine that would have been stuck forever in Leopard if I had not turned it into a Linux box (you see I hate to get rid of anything until it actually comes to a grinding hault! I like my iPad, but now I am wondering whether iPads will eventually fade from my life! My iPhone 6+ has as much storage space as my iPad, perhaps the sound isn't quite as good as that of the iPad but it is plenty lound enough, the little adjustable Anchor multi-angle stand that holds my iPad in various positions of landscape and portrait when I don't need the keyboard stand fits the iPhone 6+, probably even more safely because it isn't so tall and really has no possibility of tipping over in portrait when moved. For a sighted person, I can see that the iPad may still have its advantages but for me, I'm not so sure! My iPad is both celular and wifi and I'll either keep using it or find it a good home, but I wonder whether eventually I will find myself taking the iPhone 6+ out where I used to take my iPad. I suppose the iPad could always be ready to jump in as a hotspot when needed rather than using the iPhone 6+ so that I don't have to worry about my battery going down on the phone. I guess only time will answer this question. Perhaps this is a question sighted people are also asking but I would think the even larger screen would be more motivating for a sighted person for keeping both types of devices than for a blind person. Any thoughts? I know many people on this list don't like the size of the larger iPhone 6+, but to me it seems to be the perfect compromise between the larger iPad mini and iPad and the smaller iPhones of the 4 and 5 series. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.
