Re: IPad II thoughts
In certain forms, you can move from form to form using the next and previous buttons on the software keyboard. It works just like the tab key.

I too use the apple bluetooth keyboard. It isn't as small as some, but since typing fluency is what I'm after, I want full sized keys, and I get that with the Apple board.

Re: IPad II thoughts
Cheree Heppe here: It's like preferring apples to oranges. I love the two IOS devices I have, but, because it is a phone as well, tend to use my phone outside the house more than the IPad. The IPad is better for enlarged graphics, but I don't respond to graphics of any stripe, so, the phone's screen is fine for me. The IPad II may have some speed and functionality the phone doesn't have yet. I would try both for lengthy times in store and see which feels right.

Re: IPad II thoughts
I have a bluetooth keyboard. The typing on the touch screen isn't too bad. Once you change to touch typing, the keyboard on the IPad is large enough to work almost as well as the bluetooth one. The advantage to the bluetooth keyboard is that you can use the tab key to move through form fields.

Hi Kevin, Can you send a link to the cover that you got. My wife hates the apple cover that she got. She does not want to scratch her presious ipad.
