We picked up an iPad Air to replace the aging Toshiba (android) tablet.
I also got a realllly nifty gadget for the iPad Air.
It is a ZAGGkeys cover dealie. It is a holder for the iPad Air that has a bluetooth keyboard attached to it that is pretty darned neat!

I could use a little help with some of the "appleness" of this keyboard. I know all manner of DOS and Windows keyboard shortcuts, but none of them seem to work with the apple way of doing things....and especially with this keyboard.

For instance, ONE thing that I have learned is that pressing CMD+R will reload the screen.
This keyboard dealie has the top row of keys dedicated to some of the iPad features....lock, Siri, redo, undo, cut/paste and player controls.

Is there some super neato URL out there that has a list of CMD, CRTL, ALT/OPTION key shortcuts?

Maybe you can find it here.
I too will be learning Mac.
Have a Mac BookPro 15 .4 in monitor on its way.

Hope I don't throw it out the window before I figure it out.

I'm here to tell ya, this iPad Air thingy is just the best thing since sliced bread for "away from home" use, and this bluetooth keyboard/case dealie is one of the best accessories I've EVER seen for such a little device. Basically turning it into a mini/micro laptop. The more I play with this thing the more impressed I am with it.
