Mary, I actually think with VueScan Mobile and Prizmo, you actually could work with the scanning thing. As far as "word processing" I think with a bluetooth keyboard, Pages, and some of the other similar apps it may be possible. Perfect? Maybe not, but I think time will see improvements here as well. Obviously all this is based on what you are trying to do. I won't say you are wrong, but true we ain't quite there yet. :)
