That is what I got from Scott's post too, but sometimes people like to 
split hairs so many different ways that they should consider practicing 
law. They would fit right in.

I believe the smallest MacBook Air is 11 inches.

Being a laptop, it has a physical keyboard built-in.

I believe they start at around $1,100.00 and go up from there depending on
memory etc.

Hi.
It really depends on the tasks that you want to accomplish. If you're just
taking notes, checking email, web browsing, etc, I'd just go with an iPad
paired with a bluetooth keyboard for speed typing.

If however, you're doing more advanced word processing, spreadsheets, etc,
I'd go with a smaller laptop. These tasks can be more time wasting than
productive on an iPad in my opinion.

I'm in college now, and for some classes I'll just take my iPad for note
taking and email. However, when I'm going to my accounting class for
example, I'll take my MacBook Air so I can use Excel in virtual Windows.

Hope this helps you make you're decision.

Yes, you are talking about OutSpoken for the Mac made by Berkeley Systems back 
in the late 90's.

Actually, in the early 80's, Apple had a rudimentary screen reader in the Apple 
II GS. I used it a couple times, but did not really like it. Voice-Over is much 
better and more robust.

2012-11-22 Thread Cheryl Homiak
Yes, the Macbook Air has voiceover if that was the question being asked, and 
all Apple computers since 10.4 (Tiger) have voiceover. I could also deliniate 
exactly when iPhones and iPods got voiceover but I don't think it bears on what 
was being asked and I might not have the iPods right. All iPads have voiceover.

As of now, I have an Ipod touch 4th generation.  I want to upgrade to either 
a Ipod touch 5th generation or the iPad mini.

Do you have an IPod Touch or IPhone now?  If you buy a bluetooth
keyboard you could create any documents on them that you could on an
IPad.

I have a student who has a Dropbox account and uses Droptext to creat
documents.  You can also use Pages and it is accessible with
voiceover.

The MacBook Air is a computer, the iPad is a tablet.
You can connect USB devices to the Macbook Air, you cannot connect USB
devices to the iPad--that includes external memory sticks, printers, CD
drives, etc.
You can get a lot more memory installed in a MacBookAir.
I believe the smallest MacBook Air is 11 inches.

Being a laptop, it has a physical keyboard built-in.

I believe they start at around $1,100.00 and go up from there depending
on
memory etc.

Hi.
It really depends on the tasks that you want to accomplish. If you're
just
taking notes, checking email, web browsing, etc, I'd just go with an iPad
paired with a bluetooth keyboard for speed typing.

If however, you're doing more advanced word processing, spreadsheets,
etc,
I'd go with a smaller laptop. These tasks can be more time wasting than
productive on an iPad in my opinion.

I'm in college now, and for some classes I'll just take my iPad for note
taking and email. However, when I'm going to my accounting class for
example, I'll take my MacBook Air so I can use Excel in virtual Windows.

Hope this helps you make you're decision.

Yes, we can.  I am typing this on my Acer right now.  I think it is
about 2 years old and I could not work with JAWS Tandem on it because
it is not powerful enough but I am sure that has changed by now.  The

The small PC's do not have speech or screen enlarging capabilities and
I don't think the free screen readers have the capabilities of ones
you purchase.  I think you can do about everything with an IPod Touch
that you can do with an IPad.  I know it does not have GPS but other
than that it is pretty good.

Hi.
It really depends on the tasks that you want to accomplish. If you're just
taking notes, checking email, web browsing, etc, I'd just go with an iPad
paired with a bluetooth keyboard for speed typing.

If however, you're doing more advanced word processing, spreadsheets, etc,
I'd go with a smaller laptop. These tasks can be more time wasting than
productive on an iPad in my opinion.

I'm in college now, and for some classes I'll just take my iPad for note

RE: Ipad or mini laptop?

2012-10-13 Thread Richard Turner
Hi,
If you want a very small Windows laptop, there are quite a few that are
around, or possibly less than, 10 inches.
Acer and Asus I believe both make Netbook computers that  are quite small.
They are not going to have the battery life of an MacBook Air or an iPad.

You can write text documents very easily on the iPad.  Technically, you can
write Word documents with Pages, but personally the effort you have to go to
to deal with all the work around to me is not worth it.
You can search the archives of this list to find lots of comments about word
processing, or even go to www.applevis.com and read about the various text
editing apps that have been recommended for the Apple devices.

HTH,
Richard

I believe the smallest MacBook Air is 11 inches.

Being a laptop, it has a physical keyboard built-in.

I believe they start at around $1,100.00 and go up from there depending on
memory etc.

Hi.
It really depends on the tasks that you want to accomplish. If you're just

The MacBook Air springs to mind;  I reckon you can do more with that than 
the iPad, as good as the iPad otherwise is. Available network connectivity 
might be a consideration though, worth a closer look just in case.
