It's starting to sound like the next Smart Keyboard might have a trackpad; iPad is getting a real clamshell... https://www.theinformation.com/ ...

An iPad keyboard with a trackpad?! So many things to get right here. I hope Apple engineers have been studying 2007 netbooks. https://www.theinformation.com/ ...

I didn't plan on writing about the iPad's UX in the newsletter but READER, IT KEEPS HAPPENING. Ahem. I have a radical idea for the rumored iPad trackpad: it should do the bare minimum. https://www.theverge.com/... https://twitter.com/...

VERY excited about this rumor. Major shakeup of the iPad Pro accessory ecosystem if true, not to mention the software aspect (i.e. no more Accessibility hacks, possibly a UIKit hover API?). https://twitter.com/...

The iPad should never interface like a Mac.* * Except when it's plugged into a keyboard. Then it should be a first-class mouse-pointer citizen. https://www.theinformation.com/ ...
