10 key pad????

[gmt]

Is there some way to pop up a standard 10key pad for entering numbers on the iPad2? Trying to use the straight numeric keyboard with the 1-0 can be pretty slow and inaccurate.

Thanks

There are several third-party keyboards that have numeric keypads but none will act or can act as the iPad's default keypad/keyboard if you're not jail broken. If you use one of these third party keypads/boards you'll have to copy-and-paste the resulting numbers after you've finished entering them. For some applications that might be OK but for, say, filling out a spreadsheet, it's not going to be acceptable.

Thanks, That's kinda what I thought, but I figured it was worth asking. I use the iPad for tracking time and expenses for my consulting business as well as having notes, checklists, and documentation handy. I really don't want to start fooling around with it and break anything. In this case it's a tool, not something to experiment with.
