Hi Raul and others It's actually 20 apps with the iPad.
I like your idea about the triple tap to mark for moving and than another triple tap for dropping. Nice. Like you I don't have much trouble with the current situation however it is certainly a bit fiddly at times. Unlike others I don't usually go to the bother of moving things in and out of my doc just in order to move than from page to page. I think this has been made quite simple in the last few iterations of iOS. One helpful trick is to remember that you don't need to place your finger on the actual app to do the double tap and hold. So if yo have an app on page one and want to move it to page two, you can put your focus on the app than do the double tap and hole on the far left of the screen. This way you have plenty of space to move your finger to the left and thus move the app to the second screen. This said there's definitely a place for using the Doc when moving lots of apps around and or creating folders.
