Q: Can an iPad/iPhone app intercept media keys from a keyboard? Is it possible for an iPad/iPhone app to intercept the play/pause/rwd/fwd keys on a connected keyboard? I've heard that it can but cannot find a reference to it.

A: I believe external keyboard media keys work through the same API as the controls in the multitasking UI and on the mic/headset cord. Events from those come in as UIEvent remote control events.
