Was searching Apple’s web site to see if there was a software solution for the switch but they DON’T document it! I’m happy now. Reading in bed now becomes much less frustrating again!

I saw the control strip but had assumed it was for media controls only and never looked to the button on the right. Now I’m back to reading Kindle books on Objective-C in portrait layin in bed. haha

Funny how people seem to want reasons to get down on Steve. He’s Not like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet giving their riches to organizations bent on population reduction.

ps.

Ya think were gonna see new iPads every spring?

I guess that will have to jailbreak :-(

I am not as angry now. Just slightly annoyed.

OMG….Shoot me now

His arrogance is just amazing… What a butt…. FYI Apple you’ve been making some bad moves…. Keeping things simple has always worked…I liked the screen lock… Please bring it back “Father Steve”.
