Oxford reference online database is busy looking but there are clues to be found at every aspect of each page. Despite there was no traditional web bread crumb as you dive deeper in your searches, the many faucets on the left hand side of the page and option to remove filters above your search result was good. The quality of material is always remarkably good. The overview page and timeline feature are great resources for high schoolers. While the quotation feature is brilliant for social media users. No more Chinese whispers. Their music database even has modern music artists like Pitbull.

Apple Wireless Keyboard

I'm typing to you from my newly acquired bluetooth enabled Apple wireless keyboard. It felt heavenly to hvae it connect up so easily. In the 13 years of using mobile phone, I have never seen a more easier to connect up wireless keyboard. I mean the paring part always took mang goes and not always successful too. You can say i had a fair share of disappointment in technology. Apple does create some wonderful tools in hardware and software. I look forward to future surprises. Enough of my grovelling and drool. To the details.

First, you read the supplied documents. Bluetooth regulatroy certfication for model number A1314, Limited warranty - Apple accessory, and Apple wireless keyboard manual. The keyboard uses AA battery. Follow the etching in the back and insert the batteries correctly. On the opposite turn on the keyboard. Proceed to your iPhone and turn on bluetooth. The keyboard shoyld rhen appear on list of devices. Tap on it. An alert comes up asking to enter some digits via the keyboard. Then tada. Boths should be now paired up.

Few things to remember, once the wireless keyboard is paired up, the virtual keyboard is temporarily hidden. To bring it back on screen, just eject key. The other thing is getting use to typing on a MAC based keyboard is aother learning curve for Windows PC user. Funny.

Is it fast? Yes
Is responsive? Yes.
Virtual or physical keyboard which is better?

Hard to tell at this point in time. Typing for prolonged length of time, I'd prefer to use a physical keyboard.

Why have an extra keyboard?

To ensure I am conveying the right message through my iPhone. I personally like having SIRI proof read my ideas, responses, and thoughts. Some typo are unavoidable.
Hit caps lock instead of letter a. Press control key instead of shift key. You get the idea. PC voice over doesn't read typed text.
