Since so many people on the Electronics board now have an iPad, I thought it would be fun for us to share the neat things we've discovered while using our 'toys'
In a previous thread someone mentioned that they had problems typing on the iPad. I do too, but find that I have to sometimes when I'm away from my Bluetooth keyboard. Did you know that you can split the keyboard so you can use your thumbs to type?
Now, lots of people aren't thumb texters, but some of us are. If you are standing or holding the iPad in both hands and need to type, it's easier to to it with your thumbs.
There's a couple of ways to get the keyboard to split:
1. tap and hold the keyboard icon (that's the 'key' in the lower right of the keyboard) until a pop up menu comes up allowing you to select the split keyboard.
2. press the keyboard icon and move it up the screen
You can also use that pop up menu to undock the keyboard and move it up the screen
