How to delete multiple photos in iOS 5

Found this tip from someone else for selecting multiple photos using iOS 5. Works for deleting large numbers of photos that I had downloaded to iPad using the camera connection kit.

Last night I got up to over 250 selected at one time, probably can even get more. (Hope so, since I had 6,600 photos from a recent trip......lol.)

Using two fingers, touch and hold while swiping over the pics. When you've selected all the thumbnails visible on the screen, scroll down/up to the next set of thumbs and touch/hold/swipe again -- all the previously selected pics will remain selected.

Ah! Using 2 fingers to select in iOS 5, from 1 in iOS 4... Thanks.

So glad this feature remains, albeit using a slightly different method.
