Hi Everyone:
This might have been discussed already, so I apologize in advance if this is 
the case.  I am curious to know what people think the advantages of the iPad 
wil be for those voiceover users already using iPhones?  If the books are 
accessible I can see how the iPad will be a useful tool, but otherwise, I am 
not sure how it will be used?
I know I will purchase one because my voicenote is dying, and I refuse to spend 
a lot of money on a note taker for the blind when the iPad is out there, but I 
am not sure whether the device will be robust enough to serve as a note taker 
during it's first version?  The ability to use a bluetooth keyboard with the 
iPad is great, and I suspect that eventually the iPad truly will be the answer 
for people looking for something between a laptop and an iPhone, but I'm not 
sure that this first release will quite meet those expectations.  At the 
moment, I'm debating whether to purchase this version or eagerly await release 
number two.  What are other's thoughts?
