I have used this feature in all my word processing function and find it to be an amazing feature. I have vision problems and this allows me to dictate emails, messages, documents and has made a large change in my life. The combination of dictation, the ability to manipulate the iPad screen and the ability to import and export documents from pages to Microsoft word will allow me to function in ways that would have been impossible before. My greatest appreciation to the Apple Corporation, Steve Jobs and the invention of the iPad 3.
