iPad Another dumb JB question...iPads & Mice

[hakr100]

I JB's my iPhone 4S and I plan to JB my iPhone 5, hopefully this weekend.

I also have an iPad "3" which I did not JB. I'd sure like to if there is a JB app available that will add the ability to use a mouse via bluetooth or even a wired connection with apps. I haven't read of any that work significantly across many apps.

Suggestions if there are any such apps?

Thanks!

nope, and why would you want to, the interface is designed for touch...

The "interface" is clumsy and awkward if you are a professional writer and want to do some significant cutting and pasting in a lengthy manuscript and don't have a "real" computer with mouse handy.

Get BTC Mouse & Trackpad, it's the best.

My apple Magic Mouse works great with BTstack mouse.

It's nice for when I'm watching a movie with the tv out, or anything else when it's not sitting on my lap.

1. There are no less than two true BT hacks: the older and free BTstack mouse and the newer and, IMHO, far superior BTC Mouse & Trackpad.

2. in some cases, using a mouse makes working FAR easier: remote desktop access or even some games - for example, Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition.
