  I once thought an iPad could be used like this but to do it would require it becoming a Mac tablet. iPadOS isn't built around files as the user object and that just kills it for business https://twitter.com/...

  @Techmeme @markgurman I have a better suggestion, how about a large magnetic stand that wirelessly charges the @Apple iPad? We don't need the keyboard/trackpad now that we have Universal control. There are magnetic stands on @amazon but none of them charge wirelessly...

  I've been working on more iPadOS ideas and I've come up with one that I think is pretty clever. What if they expanded the quick note gesture by adding a wheel of different popover apps? You could drag your finger to turn the dial and select an app. https://twitter.com/...

  Power On: The iPad's hardware has long been ahead of its software. A possible solution? A Pro Mode that kicks in when connected to a keyboard and trackpad. That and much more in today's column https://www.bloomberg.com/...
