iPad Tip of the Day: Swipe to See InBox in Mail

I spotted this tip on MacWorld.com today and it's a nice little timesaver.

When you're using Mail on the iPad in portrait mode, you can see the body of the message, but you can't see the list of messages. You CAN see both the list and and actual message in landscape mode.

How can you quickly get to that list after you've read the current message?

You can always press the "File" button in upper left corner to bring it up, but there's a faster way. Just swipe one finger from the left side of the screen to the right and, what do you know, the list of messages appears! It's just a little bit easier than pressing a small button so that it makes it all worthwhile!

To dismiss the list, just tap anywhere in the message on the right and the list will slide off the screen.

A simple tip, but one I'll start using all of the time.
