> I've been using 'dictation; and that sometimes results in errors and so does typing. Actually I make fewer errors typing on the screen KBD because these days I hat a lot of wrong key. Either way I can't place the cursor for editing with any degree of precision, especially within a word. I with the KBD had arrow keys so I could move around once I've placed the cursor somewhere.
I use the screen alone (i.e., not the screen keyboard) for a large part of my interaction with my iPad.
I use the screen keyboard for a significant part.
And I use the Belkin QODE Ultimate Keyboard Case (aluminum, protective) for some of my interactions.
Since the keyboard case is on the iPad permanently, how do I decide when to use which keyboard?
If I am sitting at a table, the keyboard case not only props the screen up at a convenient angle, it also makes essentially ANY typing easier, even just entering a search term on the web, or filling a form.
If I'm reclining in the LaZBoy, the case's keyboard is sufficiently inconvenient that I only use it for editing/trimming mail messages when I'm replying to them; I often with trim that way, then switch back to the screen keyboard for the actual typing.
If I were typing more than a couple of sentences, I'll definitely use the case's keyboard.
It's nice having options.
