    iPad Pro How many use the Type Cover Keyboard on the 9.7?

    Just thinking about getting the type cover. Will it just replace the silicone cover on the front of my 9.7 and I can still use the Apple silicone back cover. Does this work well? I know no one knows but hoping it will also work with the new iPad Pro2 when they release it. Thanks MODS...

The keys of the typical QWERTY keyboard have been swapped to new random positions. 140 levels; 140 different keyboards. I would really...

    Why no MacBook-pro keyboard/trackpad-combo for desktops?

    This is a question Ive been asking myself for many years. It's too much more productive to have my hands close to the trackpad at all times, while typing, using shortcuts etc. Since I use both a macbook-pro and an iMac this is an issue for me. There must be TONS of others agreeing with me, so...
