This is a fatal flaw, no Split Keyboard. So you cannot hold it and type with your thumbs, which I have been doing with every iPad (including Mini) since the first one. I have been using my iPad Pro for two days now and though I love the larger screen it is unusable for me because I cannot hold it and type, in either Portait or Landscape orientations.

When I went into Settings, General, Keyboard, I was shocked there is no Split Keyboard switch like my iPad Air 2 has. This is a huge problem!!!

Apple, I will be returning my iPad Pro because of this problem.

I don't get it! The split keyboard on the iPad Pro seems even more valuable than any other iPad, since it is so wide that it's much harder to reach the non-split keys with your thumbs from the edges. That, while holding it in both hands in "portrait-node" (vertical) which is how I often hold it.


I recommend that we all request that feature: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
