iPad Cake forum woes.

You know... Just to add to the list of "fix this please".
 
I can't comment on the forums while I'm on my iPad.  I can get a cursor in the text box, but the iPad keyboard doesn't recognize it as such and pop up as it should.  I find that it's rather hard to type without a keyboard.... So then I discovered that I get the iPad keyboard when creating a post (cursor in subject field)... but not in the the message body.
 
So I guess I could post 5,664,987,556Thread Subjects, if I really wanted to get their attention?

Well, your Apple gizmo may not have Notepad, but I'm sure it has something similar.

They do I'm sure but it probably requires a $79 app to convert its output to a standard text format from proprietary iText...

roprietary iText...

Which in their raw form are probably just wingdings with a dropped 7th bit in 102.67 tempo and 7.24752/16 meter?

This is Apple's thoughts on Flash

http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/

Back to that Apple link about flash. Jobs actually has some pretty good points there. I kind of thought they were just jerks.
But after reading that, I'm thinking he's right for not adopting Flash. Flash is old, and been around way before mobile devices. Now there's new technology and encoding.

iPad inflated iPhone that can not make phone calls

Mooch - sounds like you didn't even read Jobs points.

I could or should elaborate more - 
first I read it - and it sounds like Steve Jobs is saying its old and dated technology and not as slick - and it seems like he's saying its a resource hog - not as powerful as other applications such as the new HTML5 and other video applications that are slicker - and why stick with all that - lets move away from that 

top it off adobe is taking a long time to delvelop java as something  to be a small resource on mobile devices yet just as powerful on a home PC- and they are taking forerver with it - YEARS - and keep changing the date of when it will be done 


that's what Steve Jobs is saying - he is done with java - they can do what they want 

he also calls them a closed  sourced and all about money - which in my opnion is exactly what apple is- 

none the less back to my point

my point is this - all that is meaningless to me as a consumer 


as an iphone owner I don't care about WHY it dooesnt surf the ENTIRE net smoothly - I just know it doesnt 

blame the java applications on the internet - blame apple development - adobe? Bill gates - or blame Bozo the clown  and give lots of reasons or excuses as why  


hence my grandpa mooch's comment - "It's all Bullsh***!"

(shrugs)

The" why" doesnt matter to me  - I am just a guy who paid money for the phone along with a monthy 20 internet fee and I would like to surf the entire internet... please.... for my 20 a month fee - 

the reasons why It dont work mean nothing to me - 

I am not in charge of all that - 

Just get it to work - for the ENTIRE WEB 

I bought a ford escape in 2006 -- it doesnt give me any restrictions on streets I get to drive on


I bought an Iphone in late 2009.... I don't want restrictions on where I can surf the web 


The manufactures should be obligated to worked together and make the comsumer happy. 


Instead we get to read a one page rant by the mighty Steve Jobs - who basically bashses Adobe as a one time freind but now behind the times and not worth working with becuase there are slicker less resource hungry programs to surf the web with - 

despite the fact there are java applications all over the internet  that need them regular old java

ok - fine 


but I dont wanna hear about all that 

I just want it to work 


thats apples motto isnt it - 

again - all the excuses and reasons and points about java good or bad don't mattter to me as a consumer - 

I just want to surf the ENTIRE WEB 


who knows - it maybe up to cakewalk - or anyone else who builds web pages to have a "mobile" friendly site as well as a regular pc site - which seems to be the way things are going 

again - whatever - 

none of it matters to me 

When i can surf the entire web - free and clear of hassle - then I'll be like ahhhhhhhhh....this is worth 20 a month to have the internet in my pocket 


well I basically said my point of view in two different threads - and even read the steve jobs rant twice  - and bapu is calling me -- so I gotta run 


hopefully you read mine --

I am a fairly avid reader on just about anything
