iPad Tutorial Of The Day – White on Black – 06/14/10

It is possible to change them and to make the existing white background screen black and the default black text to white. This changes everything on your iPad so some apps almost appear in a ‘negative format’. This tutorial will demonstrate how easy it is to change the settings and also to compare the difference between the two.
