How to prevent iPhone apps to sync with iPad

I have an iPhone and lot of apps on it. All of them are syncing with iPad, but I want to see only HD apps on iPad. So, can I forbid to install iPhone apps on my iPad?
Thanks for answer!

You just click on the iPad while connected to itunes, then click on the apps menu on the iPad in iTunes and you can select deselect which apps are synced. It has a drop down on the apps page to let you sort by date, device type, etc. There is also an option that prevents autosyncing of new apps.

The problem is that I can't sort apps by device type (only by name, categories, size, date). I really don't want to select every iPad app from this list. Also, I haven't updated my iTunes, so now I have iTunes 9.2.1. Maybe in iTunes 10 I can sort apps by device type?

Yep, you need to upgrade.

Yes, you can sort by type and that will separate the iPad compatible ones from the iPhone only ones. However, you'll still have to select them all individually to stop them syncing.
