Using iPad as a Bluetooth keyboard for a mac???

[LAFUNGA]

Does anyone know if it is possible to use a new iPad as a Bluetooth keyboard for a mac?

I am aware there are a few apps that claim to do this over wifi however I am looking for a Bluetooth solution that would be more permanent?

Thanks in advance.

Yes. I use my bluetooth keyboard (apple) with my ipad. No issues.

That wasn't the question. 🙂


OP: I don't think so. If there is, you'd probably need to jailbreak.

How exactly would bluetooth be more permanent?

wifi is only at specific locations. bluetooth is more portable. (in turn more permeant)

I think that ^ is what he / she means.

Permanent

I meant permanent as in something I could use as a wireless keyboard whiled MacBook pro is connected to a HDTV

Did you have any luck finding way, perhaps a Cydia app?

I bought Mousepad for my iPad which was ok for short term use, however if you want to do serious work you will need to buy a bluetooth keyboard as all those apps are sporadic in their performance which is a hinderance while working.
