Here’s how to use a mouse on a jailbroken iPad
A new jailbreak tweak was recently released, and it allows you to use a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard on your iPad or iPhone. Although it may seem inherently wrong to choose mouse control over touch control, it’s a killer tweak for writers who prefer to use an external Bluetooth keyboard. Sometimes I use a Bluetooth keyboard to type documents with Pages, and it always throws me off a bit when I have to reach out and touch the screen. I’ve found that having a mouse along for the ride makes composing an article much easier.

We’ve been expecting this incremental update since late last year when Apple released beta versions to developers.

Given that battery life fixes are a major part of this update, it could also be that Apple hasn’t yet gotten that issue under control, thus delaying the release. Either way, we’re bound to hear some concrete news about iOS 5.1 this week.
