Just for the Hell of it I installed Air Keyboard to see what it could do.
Their server installed without issue, and it gives me a full keyboard +
touchpad which recognizes gestures. There are a few options for a
compact keyboard and some language options along with stuff such as
gaming input and Photoshop input.

I typed this entire response using Air Keyboard on my iPad with no
noticeable lag at all.
I also tried it with Photoshop, and it is better than Adobe Nav. I
actually think I am going enjoy noodling about with it.
