I don't see any reason why anyone would be so daunted about using the iPad. I mean with that one button down the screen, there is not very much opportunity to err in its manipulation. You are right! It's always possible to use the iPad at a basic level. But despite this, some really incredible things about it haven't been revealed in the open. Hopefully, this paper will help you to get by.

These are some further things you have to know about your iPad.

1. The Soft Reset. When our laptop crashes, we have a tendency to run amuck as we still have to go thru all the re-booting process. And for many people, this spells total bother. But when your iPad freezes, you don't have to get through all of these concerns. All you have to do is to hold the power button on top and the home button down for a few seconds. Likewise, that can be done when you want to force quit an application. See? No more of all those miseries you get when your iPad comes to a halt.

2. Copying and Pasting. This isn't all about plagiarism. Many iPad users protest about the best way to do cut'n'paste. But to repeat a text is a no-brainer when you're doing it on an iPad. Just double tap it. If you want to copy a paragraph, highlight it and stretch the blue knobs.

3. Free Books. The iBooks app is the answer when you want to read or buy eBooks for your gizmo. But you may import free books from any source aside from iTunes. But be sceptical of the format that the book is compatible with. Or you won't successfully download or read it.

4. Mute it. Okay, there are some embarrassing eventualities where your iPad goes off with a volume loud enough to distract others from their own business. Don't fret! If you're trapped in that sort of dilemma, use your snap judgment! Hold down the volume button of your iPad for two seconds and it'll mute instantly.

5. An iPad Photo Frame. The easiest way for your iPad to function as an immediate digital frame is to turn on the iPad, and look towards the right side of UNLOCK. There, you will see a flower. Click on it, and it will begin a slideshow. You can then toggle the velocity in the settings. You can zoom in on the faces for a pleasant giggling session.

6. Giant Screen-captures. While viewing something engaging, you can take a screen shot of it. Say, you are browsing the internet, and you found a photograph of your crush Jake Gyllenhaal. You can take a screen capture by pushing the power button and home button at once for half a second. It will then be stored in your own photograph library.

7. Fast Web Page Scrolling. It's so frustrating when you simply finished reading an eBook and you want to read something back at the top. You don't have to drag your fingers regularly for you to go back. You can just tap the title bar once and voila! You are at the top. It practically works like magic.

8. Preview Your Mail! You are now able to skim one or two mails without opening each one. Actually you can tinker with the settings and set your mail to preview more than two lines. The iPhone also has this, however it doesn't significantly matter because of its little monitor size. But this functionality is a triumph on the iPad. To try this, just go to the Settings gt; Mail, Contacts and Calendars, and select 5 lines under Preview.

9. Physical Keyboard versus a Virtual Keyboard. Buy a Bluetooth keyboard and connect it to your iPad, and the virtual keyboard will vanish. But in case you desire it back, just hit the eject key on Apple's physical keyboard, and the virtual keyboard will reappear.

10. Put applications on the Bottom Tray. In fact the iPhone and the iPad, by default, can hold 4 app icons on the bottom tray. But an iPad can store up to 6! By clicking and holding an icon, it'll unlock its position; now drag it into the bottom tray! That easy!

See how convenient it is to use the iPad? Now you can try these super handy tricks when you get your own iPad. How? By selling your portable computer!
