I thought the iPad had the same dictionary as the OS X. Is that incorrect?
To say the truth, I don't know. I'm not working regularly on an English basis, nor on any major language basis for that matter.
Any small MacBook Pro or Airbook can do as much and more (in fact, wordprocessing on an iPad is rather limited, for instance)
Do you use the built-in dictation feature to enter text by voice?
No use to me, as explained before.
What about shooting videos and taking pictures, which you can't do with a MacBook Air?
Ah, pictures don't mean anything to me. Yet, for limited purposes you could use PhotoBooth.
