iPad and the Apple Wireless Keyboard

September 28, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

Today I got my Apple Wireless Keyboard (US edition) to use with my iPad (and iPhone/PS3/MacBook Pro as needed). Good points are easy pairing and a good, portable keyboard that won’t give you RSI. Bad points are that, unlike the iPad dock Keyboard, you have no Home button (how hard could it be to map this to the ESC?) and various other intuitive keys and key combinations don’t work. Example being the cursor keys that only work in a few apps… lucky me that the WordPress app is one of them :) Having to use an emulated CTRL key in pTerm, not so much fun.

Hopefully the release of iOS 4.2 in a month or two will turn my tiny little iMac wannabe into something even more useful… without the huge battery drain and stuttering that my iPhone 3Gs suffered with 4.0 :I

Oh, and the Griffin A-Frame is great, wish we had nice wooden iPad cases I keep seeing on Engadget easily available here!
