iPad Content

Okay, this is a problem I didn’t think about till now. I have USA Today, the NY Times, and a couple of other free mags on my iPad and they are taking up space. The same goes for ereaders (iBooks, Kindle, goodReader). Each of these take up space on my iPad. Ideally I’d like one, maybe two pages of apps and the rest hidden inside folders. On my jail broken iPhone I have a nice little app called categories. It allows you to group apps together. So I have a games category, an apps, an online, as well as others. Everything is neatly grouped together without having to swipe through five different pages. With more magazines coming out on the iPad, having a lot of single purpose apps is going to get annoying to navigate.

Here’s hoping iPad OS has folders.

iPad Keyboard

Finally a touch screen computer with a keyboard that works with my large hands. People complain about how the portrait mode keyboard is difficult to type on, but for my big hands it’s a perfect way of typing with my thumbs. I can reach any key with a combination of my two thumbs quite comfortably.
