I'm sure you're right there and I'd like it too! <Smiles>

Fab when you could bring up a map of your area and get a better idea of what a particular junction looked like.

I've tried handwriting already with my finger Carol and it works. But to
have VoiceOver describe drawings someone makes would be fab, and even better
to feel them. It's not impossible or fanciful, I bet it will be done one
day.

Yes, and I think you could probably try handwriting ... as I said to John a
bit earlier!

Wouldn't it be fantastic if, when you drew anything with the pencil, it
came
up as raised lines so we could feel them? Or VoiceOver described what you
did with the pencil? I can't tell you how much I would love something
like
that so that when I ask people what an object or concept is like, they
could
draw it for me on the iPad, and it either becomes raised, or VoiceOver
describes it. Wow!

As for the pencil, well, you never know. We all thought we could never use

a
totally touch screen device until 2009. Apple proved us wrong and they
could
very well do it again and again and again.

Hi Derek

Yep, I like the sound of this apart from the price tag!! I understand
it has an interesting speaker system in it, and a keyboard that can be
bought and attached as an extra. The other accessory is a pencil, but
I can't see that being helpful to a non-sighted user to be honest.

Hi All
I thought this may interest some of you.

Apple's new iPad Pro has 12.9in screen

The Guardian 10 September 2015


Apple has announced a new iPad Pro with a larger 12.9in screen and a
focus on productivity. The company's chief executive Tim Cook
announced the new iPad in San Francisco, along with updates to the
company's other products including the iPhone.

The iPad Pro is the first iPad since the product was launched in 2010
to have a screen larger than 9.7in and has the same width screen as
the iPad Air 2's height. The iPad Pro, similar to Apple's MacBook Pro
and Mac Pro computer lines, is being marketed as a business or
professional tablet, capable of running two full-sized applications
side-by-side on the screen.

Measuring 12.9in diagonally, the iPad Pro's screen offers 76% more
screen area than the current 9.7in, with the same 4:3 ratio for its
width and length.

It will be available in November in silver, gold and space grey for
$799 (£520) with 32GB of storage, with versions with more memory and
4G connectivity costing up to $1,079. Samuel Gibbs
