IS THERE A WAY TO REORGANISE THE ORDER OF PICS IN "PHOTOS" AP ON THE IPAD ?

hello ... i am trying to arrange a series of photos/videos in a particular order in the "photo" ap ... for some reason, when i import my photos onto the ipad, it sorts them by date ... is there any way of sorting by file name, or just simply rearranging the order manually? ...

failing that, do you know of an ap that could do this? ... keynote on ipad can't do video for some reason, and my iphoto08 can't export to ipad ... surely this should be simple?!?

many thanks ...

In addition to Carolyn's reference, you can also sort photos on your MBP by events, places, faces, etc., then save the photos in albums and sync the albums to the iPad. At this time there is not a way to sort and reorder on the iPad with the iOS 3.2 Photos app, but you can accomplish a great deal using your MBP and iPhoto and Apreture if you have it.

thank you all ... i actually went into the apple store, and no one could figure this out (which i found strange) ... but found that it can be done in iphoto (even on my old '08 version) and just import them in through itunes in the photos section ... converting all the video to mp4 is a bummer, but once that is done, it was fairly straightforward ... thank you! ...
