iOS 5 features: Split keyboard for iPad | TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog

http://www.tuaw.com/2011/10/12/ios-5-features-split-keyboard-for-ipad/ Laying the iPad flat in landscape orientation makes typing on its touchscreen relatively easy once you get used to it, but what about typing when you're holding it in your hands? If you've got hands like a basketball player, thumb-typing on the iPad in portrait orientation probably hasn't been a problem for you so far. For the rest of us, we were hoping for a better solution. In iOS 5, that solution is here: Apple calls it the split keyboard, and it's pretty awesome.
You've no doubt seen the split keyboard that iOS 5 brought to the iPad, but it turns out it has a few hidden buttons on the edges. Here's how they work. My biggest gripe with the split keyboard was that it forced me to type certain letters—like T or Y—with certain hands. Depending on what I'm typing, sometimes I prefer reaching to T with my right hand, or Y with my left. It turns out, though, that Apple actually lets you do that with the split keyboard—you just don't see the keys. Try it: tap and drag the keyboard key in the bottom right corner to split the keyboard, then tap next to the Y key.

All the Awesome Things You Can Do with a Long Press on Your iPhone, iPad, or iPad touch

Long pressing—that is, tapping and holding down on a part of your screen—provides a lot of handy shortcuts on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Here's a look at practically everything you can with this technique to save you a bunch of time typing and navigating your device. Tapping and holding a letter on your keyboard will provide you with accented versions of that letter. Tapping and holding a symbol will provide you with alternate symbols. For example, the dollar sign will offer up a handful of other currency markers.
There is one iOS "tip" that I keep hearing and it is wrong. Worse, I keep hearing it from supposedly authoritative sources. I have even heard it from the lips of Apple "Geniuses" in stores. Here is the advice - and remember it is wrong: All those apps in the multitasking bar on your iOS device are currently active and slowing it down, filling the device's memory or using up your battery. To maximise performance and battery life, you should kill them all manually. http://speirs.org/blog/2012/1/2/misconceptions-about-ios-multitasking.html

Who Says the iPad Isn't For Programming? Meet Codify

Tablets like the iPad are ideal for certain activities, but programming is not typically among them. Much like writing text, you can write code on the iPad, but it's more cumbersome without an external keyboard and you'll probably need to port your draft over to the desktop for it to be truly useful. We don't expect to see developers ditch their laptops anytime soon, but a new breed of apps for the iPad help make the device more coding-friendly. One of them is Codify, which went live yesterday. It lets you build simple games and simulations using a combination of hand-coding and touch-based visual programming.
Make Anything on your iPad. Codea for iPad lets you create games and simulations — or just about any visual idea you have. Turn your thoughts into interactive creations that make use of iPad features like Multi-Touch and the accelerometer. We think Codea is the most beautiful code editor you'll use, and it's easy. Codea is designed to let you touch your code. Want to change a number?

Codify – iPad

Guest Author: Christopher Pitt Let me begin by saying that Two Lives Left has done a remarkable job at what is essentially an old idea. Code editors on the iPad are not a new concept. The problem has always been that touch screen devices are ill suited for the kind of keyboard-control required to code on a mobile device. Codea does not suffer from this as much, since it is based on a LUA-like programming language that makes little use of extended keyboard symbols. The language is both clean and expressive – something I would like to utilize for other platforms.
