“Crippled iWorks apps for iPad causes confusion and frustration for new owners”

My Keynote and Pages documents are altered when they are converted to the iPad version. Grouped objects are ungrouped (this for me is a big issue given my complex presentations), endnotes and footnotes are not imported in Pages, Table of Content changes to regular text, some fonts cannot be used on the iPad, etc.

That doesn’t really lessen the achievement of having a quite functional version of Keynote or Pages running on the iPad, but it’s a pity, and made much worse by the fact that Apple’s communication about the apps, both on the website and in the keynote, has indeed been misleading.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
