I believe the best way to find out which is best for your needs would be to go down to the store and ask them to show you the various iPads. The person assisting you may or may not know about voice over in which case you can explain that all that it requires is to hold down the home key and wait for the tone and say, turn voice over on. You do the same thing to say turn voice over off. The sails person should be happy to comply with your request.

See for yourself the difference between portrait and landscape modes. Of course in this way, the user, that's you can see how much more can be shown on the various screens. Personally, I like the iPad Air. It's big enough screen should be easier to view for some high partials and for the totally blind fewer errors are made as the screen offers larger icons so that even fumbled finger guys like myself can manage things much better even in a moving vehicle.

Subject: RE: Advantages/disadvantages with portrait and landscape on the IPad Mini Retina


Krister,

The main difference is that as far as I know an iPad Mini in portrait mode
does not display things in a left and right screen area/container. For
instance, normally on an ipad the Settings app (just using that as an
example) shows the main categories on the left side and if, for example, you
double tap on General, you then see all of what is under General on the
right side. If you put an ipad Mini in portrait mode it will display/look
like on an iphone which means if you double tap General the main Settings
categories disappear and will be replaced with what is under General.

As to what is better would depend on each user and on how you get used to it
and in the end you have to make that choice. I think I would probably use an
iPad Mini more in portrait mode like my iPhone whereas I prefer to use a
full-size iPad in landscape mode.


Regards,
Sieghard

Mini Retina

Hi,
Well, the subject sorta says it all, when navigating around, what mode do
people prefer? Are there any advantages/disadvantages with one over the
other?
