But now, folks over at Tao of Mac (via The Verge) have found a workaround and have published a list of keyboard shortcuts that should definitely make typing on the iPad with Apple Wireless Keyboard a little bit … Read More

Protecting my iPad is a big priority for me. Not only because it’s an expensive investment, but when it comes time to upgrade, I want the older model to look brand new so I can get top dollar.

So using a screen shield is a must for me – and my favourite is the invisibleShield from ZAGG. I find it easy to apply, it does what it says it’ll do … Read More

So you’ve got your new iPad and are loving it’s gorgeous Retina Display, right? Well, apart from its ultra-high resolution display, the new iPad also packs a pretty amazing battery. While it takes a little longer to charge than the previous models, it does last longer than the older models too. However, in order to push your device’s average 10-hour battery life to the maximum, we suggest you make these … Read More

Did you get your new Retina Display/LTE iPad today? How are you loving that gorgeous screen? It’s just breathtaking.

One new feature of this iPad is the addition of dictation, which will write down your sentences and anything you throw at it. This is not full blown Siri (that might come later), but it’s a start.

To get people on the 4G bandwagon, the ‘Big Three’ all offer two options: monthly plans and flex-rate plans. And the great thing is that you don’t have to sign … Read More

At the new iPad’s unveiling, Apple also introduced a $4.99 iPhoto for iOS app in the App Store to compete with apps like Adobe’s Photoshop touch, bringing multi-touch photo editing to iPhone and iPad in a breakthrough way. Despite the fact that iPhoto app is a universal binary and has been optimized to work on both iPhones and iPads, it supports only the iPad 2 and the new iPad, … Read More

Besides the announcement of the new iPad, my favourite moment of Wednesday’s Apple event was the unveiling of iPhoto for the iPad and iPhone.

But this isn’t your typical iPhoto program. Apple has redesigned it from the ground up for your iOS devices. Because of this it might be a little intimidating at first glance. But once you get into it, it’s really simple … Read More

When it comes to editing video on your iPad, arguably your best choice has been Apple’s iMovie. It’s cheap, simple to use and turns out a nice finished product.

However, it isn’t perfect by any means. It has a lot of flaws when it comes to advanced editing and real customization.

With the introduction of iOS 5, the iPad received a new form of keyboard called the “split keyboard” to apparently assist in faster typing with two hands on the iPad’s bigger screen. Turns out, this split keyboard has a few “phantom buttons” on the edges (via LifeHacker).

Being away from home also means you’re away from your desktop or laptop where you’ve kept most of your TV shows and music, and while iTunes Match should mitigate any of your music needs (maybe), your stash of TV shows on your iPad is … Read More
