Tip of the Day 20100528
Did you know that you could use Command-A with text fields on the iPad? It's very handy when using an external Bluetooth keyboard. It selects all the text in the field and displays a touchable Cut - Copy - Paste menu, letting you easily replace the field text or copy it to the system pasteboard.
Supported keyboard shortcuts include Cmd-C (Copy), -X (Cut), and -V (Paste). You can also use the arrow keys to navigate around text views, and access the iPad's brightness controls (F1 and F2), volume (F11 and F12), as well as audio playback (F7, F8, and F9). Although the keyboard can be used on the Mac for Expose (F3) and Dashboard (F4), these keys do not work on the iPad (yet).
