IS there any way to adjust this? Typing is a huge problem. Extra letters added everywhere . Maybe I'm a klutz!

Well, if you're a klutz you're part of a large contingent. The iPad's onscreen keyboard isn't the worst I've used by any stretch but the best is no match for a physical keyboard. If you do a lot of typing, do yourself a favor and get a good bluetooth keyboard. Otherwise, learn the skills necessary to use an onscreen keyboard; those skills are very different from those required on a physical keyboard. In other words, keep your fingers away from any key you don't plan to push. PITA+

I just noticed that the keyboard has "orientation" bumps on the "F" and "J" Keys. Some kind of joke... No?

Heh, Apple programmers. They are a funny bunch!

Who just noticed this herself, after having it pointed out. Year and a half of ownership ... and still learning! :D
