wonder how much it cost to do that study, used one since day one every
day NO problem. Some people will find fault with everything. Own one use
it for a while and then report. If it hurts you in one position the
smart thing to do is change position. Dumb thing to do is use it and if
it hurts keep using it that way, then write a report saying is bad.

Breitbart is known liar. Furthermore, he speaks of a case without
mentioning which of the dozens of cases he means. In other words, the
so-called study isn't worth the pixels it wastes.

There's at least one case out there that has an easel in both protrait and

me, the iPad is primarily an ereader. Portrait cases are difficult to find. I
can open my fliptop portrait cover and put in in a wedge arrangement I got
from Levengers and all I have to do is tap the screen edge to turn the page.
Nothing simpler.

When I lie on my side, the iPad rotates horizontally,
and I have to lift my head off the pillow to read it.
That makes my neck hurt. Conclusion, iPad ergonomics suck.

I hope that you are joking, and that you really do know about orientation
lock.

I thought it was obvious that a joke would be my response to a joke of a
citation.

Giggles 8-). That's the only use I've found for the screen lock.

Which is why I appreciate the rotation lock on my iPad.
