Apart from the shear size (more than big enough keys - at least in landscape), having shift and modifier keys on right and left makes all the difference. It just somehow fits with my unorthodox typing style. I'm easily 5 times faster on iPad than iPhone and maybe as much as 100 times more accurate. > I'm still waiting for a stylus, to see if I blew it or not by buying > Penultimate.

Will be interesting to see what happens with that after the beta phase. I know its a fair bit more expensive, but Readdle Docs beats GoodReader handily. > _______________________________________________ > OSX-Nutters mailing list | [email protected] > http://lists.tit-wank.com/mailman/listinfo/osx-nutters > List hosted at http://cat5.org/ _______________________________________________ OSX-Nutters mailing list | [email protected] http://lists.tit-wank.com/mailman/listinfo/osx-nutters List hosted at http://cat5.org/
