My iPad keyboard dock arrived today. As expected it’s almost identical to the standard Apple keyboard. It’s great so far!
The “f” function keys have been replaced by a set of shortcuts for common iPad functions. From left to right:
• Shows home screen (exits current application)
• Search (exits current application)
• Brightness down
• Brightness up
• Photos slideshow
• Show/hide on-screen keyboard
• (blank)
• Previous track
• Play/pause
• Next track
• Mute
• Decrease volume
• Increase volume
• Lock/unlock screen
The “fn” key has been removed, and the control key is wide again like a traditional keyboard.
