Should I do a recording of me editing text on my I touch and or iPad?
Editing on any iOS device works the same. If so, I will in a few days
when I get back to the place where I left my recorder. This is
assuming that nothing comes up, and y'all want a recording. Oh yes,
I'm typing this on the screen of my iPad. LOL.
