Goode’s View on Death & Taxes: Tips for iPad

Best Tip of many useful Suggestions on this interesting new blog:

To use Westlaw on an iPad, I do the following: 1) go into the settings on Westlaw, and turn off link viewer, 2) Download iCab mobile (a web browser) from the App Store and set it to desktop Safari.  Use ICab to view Westlaw.  For some reason the normal mobile safari doesn’t work well.  Remember to use two finger scrolling sometimes if the single finger doesn’t work.  When you want to email an article to yourself, be sure to select rtf (rich text format) as the .doc version used by Westlaw doesn’t seem to work well with the iPad.  These tips can save you from having to spend a lot of money on WestlawNext.
As stated above, sometimes you must use two fingers to scroll so that the entire page doesn’t move.
