All iPads The iPad challenge! [CHALLENGE OVER]

[Night Spring]

That's what Calibre is doing. I can edit the source HTML and correct typos. But nowhere as streamlined as clicking an "edit" button or better yet, clicking where the typo is, correcting it, then saving file.

Most of the time when I'm reading a buggy ePub, I don't feel like going back to Calibre, opening it, correcting, saving, exporting to iTunes, plugging iPad, then syncing again.

Well, that is exactly why I wish for an iPad app to edit ePubs! It absolutely could be as simple as clicking and typing, then pushing "save." Now we just need to find a dev who would write the app for us, lol.

Well even for Mac OS X it doesn't seem to be available.

Hi, I agree that is a bit of an inconvenience, I have found work arounds for most things quite well. I use copy and paste quite a bit to put text into documents, works quite well, copy it in focus on the document then delete the text.

For emails I have documents by readdle (free!) which I can open documents into, or save them into from the internet and email as much of them as attachments as I need (never noted a limit). Takes a bit more organisation but works fine for me.

I have found for everything there is a workaround, can make it a bit untidy but have worked around it not too bad.

If you have the opportunity, play around with a windows 8.1 tablet and try the multitasking feature. It's actually quite nice, and it would be great if iOS implemented it even better. For what I do, not being able to see two different apps at once (usually a browser and document), it is 10x harder to get stuff done. Otherwise, you have to switch back and forth frequently, and it is highly inefficient for my workflow.

The only other feature that I'd like to see is a copy/paste function that does more than just text across apps. Namely, I want to be able to attach a PDF from dropbox,etc to a reply email.

Sorry about no updates guys. Gone back to my my MacBook I can't handle the smaller screen. I made it but it is difficult.

Hi,


Its been an interesting thread so thanks for that.

For me i use an 11" Macbook Air and an iPad Air.

In all their isn't much really that I notice in regards to thereal estate and on balance I don't do that much intensive on them.

The main reasons why I flick back to my MBA is to add pictures if I need to on another forum I use, as it does not support their "rich editor' unfortunately.

My usage is far more heavy so I just stick with my laptop.

That's great.

I do use the MBA for getting music and movies.

Happy days.
