...Does the apple wireless keyboard have fully functioning arrow keys (it's not clear from the description)...
...or is there some combination of "other brand" wireless keyboard and/or mouse via the USB dongle that would provide this functionality?
...it would be helpful if apple spelled this out. Is that too much to expect?...
...Regarding the CCK, that is the dongle I referred to and I have gotten if to work on a couple of older Logitech keyboards, but they are cumbersome and I can't find the friggin receiver for one.
...And you're right about the CCK not fitting ipads with bulky cases...I have a very bulky incase and it's just not happening unless I butcher the case or remove the ipad from the case completely.
...Anyway, I'm sure I wasn't the only to be incredulous at the absence of arrow keys on the ipad. Has Apple ever provided as explalanation regarding this matter?

To put it another way: 8 million iPad sold. Millions of iPad owners "get it". And if you include all of the iPhone and iPod Touch devices, which also don't have arrow keys, that implies to me that arrow keys really aren't absolutely necessary for the way Apple has implemented iOS on the iPad. It would be nice for text editing, yes. But not necessary for iOS. So while statistically, you might not be the only one incredulous, the numbers also indicate that most iPad owners weren't incredulous or it didn't matter.
