  2. I wish companies wouldn't over-hype products like this. It's not enabling iPad for everyone at all. Head-tracker users? Eye-gaze users? And switch access will be a shadow of what most switch users would truly like on the iPad. A way of interacting with all apps via touch and gesture emulation. Pick a game at random from the App store and try playing it with a switch to any extent at all. Impossible at the moment.

    One day, the iOS devices may truly be made accessible to all, but not until Apple wake up to this need.
