For a visually impaired person, perhaps. For a totally blind one, none. I'm
going to post about my experiences to my blog soon, but long story short, I
just recently gave mine away because for me personally, the iPhone and iPad
were redundant. To each his own, but if it's an educational setting with a
limited budget, I wouldn't do it.

Subject: Re: utility of an iPad as a productivity tool

Personally, I don't think the iPad offers anything the iPhone does not in
terms of apps. It has a better battery life, and some people prefer the
interface that some apps (like Mailor Safari) offer, but that's it. Oh, if
you use Mbraille, you can type with your fingers straight across the screen.
Low vision users often like the larger screen for viewing magnified images
or other low-vision apps, but for a blind person that does not matter.
