iPad vs. proper punctuation use: The battle is joined.

[firecat]

I borrowed my dad's iPad and tried to touch-type (in landscape mode):

Mary had a little lamb; its fleece was white as snow.

The iPad has word suggestion built in. When I typed "its," the iPad suggests "it's".

The way you tell the iPad to accept the word it is suggesting is to type a space.

So much for touch-typing.

*sigh* I miss the Newton.

That's great! I do think the iPad has potential as a music-making/enhancing device. If I were to buy one, that's probably what I would use it for the most.

(Who am I kidding. I would use it for Bejeweled the most.)
