iPad and Keynote

When, if at all, will Apple re-do Keynote for the iPad so that sound, Music, will not be stripped from Keynote for the iPad?

Nobody here can possibly tell you and Apple never gives advance info on such things. But you can tell Apple you want this via the channel they have set up for such requests:

The forum for iPad Keynote is elsewhere, namely

I developed a goofy workaround (below).
Is this the only way?

1. Record sound as part of a Quicktime movie.
2. Process & save for iPad.
3. Import the video through iTunes.
4. Place on a slide & set to play automatically.
5. Shrink the movie window to the size of a pixel and hide it somewhere on the slide.
