When you activate an edit field or an app that requires it or allows it, the 
keyboard always appears at the same place.  there are also some onstances where 
the keypad/board has a button that pops it up on the screen and one to hid it.

Hi Ben,

very nice explanation ... I'm getting a good idea that the IPad can be used 
with relative ease, so it's a matter of how effective (fast) the on-screen 
keyboard and such things can be used. I assume that the keyboard always appears 
in the same place?

Dear Terry,
Typing on the iPad's keyboard is quite easy.  You have two modes of typing. One 
being the standard mode of typing which is the double tap or split tap and the 
other mode being touch typing.  In regards to touch typing, you find the letter 
with your finger and than lift your finger off and the letter will be typed for 
you.  Apple's products are quite simple to use.  Once you have the touch screen 
motions down you will be able to use the iPhone iPod touch and iPad without any 
problems.  I use both a Mac and an iPod touch on a daily basis without any 
problems.  Have a wonderful evening.
Blessings,
Ben King
