iPad Keyboard Shortcuts: Apple Adds More in iOS 7
The iPad is great for doing real work, especially blogging, and even better when you mate it with a keyboard case. With the release of iOS 7, Apple has significantly boosted tablet efficiency by adding support for new iPad keyboard shortcuts and allowing third-parties to implement them, as well.

Of course, there are some glaring omissions from the above list of iPad keyboard shortcuts. Perhaps the most badly needed is keyboard app switching a la the Mac’s Command + Tab shortcut. Also, at least on my ZAGGfolio, the arrow keys can’t be used scroll a webpage or move up/down emails in Mail.
A keyboard shortcut for Safari tab switching would also be a very welcome addition.
