Skritter team,
When can one expect ipad layout to be rolled out ? 3 months or 6 or more ?
Also sample sentences in IOs app ? Any timelines?

I am also dying to know. Please let us know.
Any rough idea would be fine.

By the way, if you want to improve the look of the app right now and you have an iPad 1 or 2 you have a couple of options:

1) Jailbreak it and install 'RetinaPad' (for a few dollars from Cydia)
2) Sell it on eBay and get an iPad 3

The new iPad and Retinapad both allow iPhone apps to run at the iPhone 4's resolution. By default, iPhone apps run at the iPhone 3G's lower resolution on the iPad 1 & 2, which is usable but a bit ugly.

We're not sure, but we have a lot of projects jostling for attention right now, so I don't think those things will be ready soon.

alanmd, have you tried RetinaPad with Skritter? I've already done a little bit toward using our retina graphics on iPad, so unless it hacks UIKit to display sharper text, I'm not sure what else it could do.

I haven't tried RetinaPad with Skritter, as I upgraded to an iPad 3, but I ran RetinaPad before on my iPad 1.

RetinaPad allows the iPad to run iPhone apps (and therefore Skritter) at iPhone 4 resolution (960x640), instead of forcing it to think it is running on an iPhone 3 (480x320) which the iPad 1 & 2 do by default.

[Actually, to be a bit more precise, iPhone apps in iPad 1&2 '2x' mode do look slightly better than a scaled-up 480x320 version, as some images and native text are rendered at the iPad's full resolution. An iPad 3 running Skritter looks a little better again pixel for pixel than an iPhone 4 (or iPad 1/2 with RetinaPad) for the same reason - some stuff such as native text is rendered at the iPad 3's higher resolution]

Here are some links to show the difference between viewing Skritter on an iPad 1 and iPad 3:

iPad 3 resized to 1024x768, which is pretty much what an iPad 1 or 2 with RetinaPad should look like: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alanmd/7505705368/sizes/l/in/photostream/

Note how the English and hanzi text on the grey background at the top looks much better on the iPad 3 than iPad 1&2 (RetinaPad should allow this same improvment for earlier iPads).

Of course a native Retina iPad 3 App could look even crisper than my iPad 3 iPhone app screenshot, but the Skritter iPhone app looks pretty darn good on the iPad 3 already!

I hope that all makes sense...
