Neal, Using the latest version of Fleksy which is fully iPad aware, try using it in landscape mode. I was truly amazed. I was able to type on my Mini with my hands in the standard home row position just like I was using a laptop. Once you try it a couple of times, it's yet another boost in typing speed. It was literally touch typing for those that are touch typists.

I find typing no different, if not easier, I never did, so to speak, touch type on the iPad screen in landscape. I just held it in one hand and used the other to type one letter at a time, or, used Flksy. The Mini is easier as I can type in the same way I type on the iPhone, or, of course use Fleksy.
