    But you get no tactile feedback. I don't like touch screen keyboards.

    The iPad is cool – but where's the Dvorak keyboard?

    According to Apple's tech specs for the iPad, the device offers the following keyboard layouts: [list of national layouts]

    This just seems so nuts that there is no way to rearrange the keys.    There should be a setup app that lets you use your fingers to drag the keys to the positions you want them to be.

    just nuts.

    It's quite funny that people still expect Apple to be interested in what their customers want. How many times must they prove to you that they don't give a ****? But of course the "Apple people" will buy regardless...

    Funny and sad at the same time.

    All you need is audio feedback really.

    No, I've tried that, it's far from enough. Also, if my hands get slightly off I'd have to look down to align them again.

    There's a reason those little bumps are on t and n.
