I am getting a 3g ipad this Friday and plan to buy lots of music apps as a cheap way to control my gear lust. I will keep you informed.

Whenever I get text messages from people that includes a picture I always have to respond with "I can't view text pictures on my phone!!! STILL!!" I was recently told you can on the later gen iPhones and that was news to me.

what sound generating applications do you think will contribute to your studio projects?
i find iDrum a great tool for creating and moving grooves from host to host and machine (netbook) to machine (studio). so an iPad instance of iDrum would be appealing and useful to me. other than that, the iPad rebirth is kool since it can save proper rebirth files for export to a computer. But rebirth is pretty much in permanent 'toy' status for me even on my lappie.
That's never really bothered me, or I should say it's something I've never really thought about, but I see your point. But are there any devices out on the market that do that.LoopStationZebra wrote: SYNC YOU TOO, MOTHERFUCKER!!!!
Apples approach, or lack thereof, to create devices that can actually talk to each other wirelessly is nothing short of SHIT. I don't understand why my iPhone can't talk to my iPad. Data exchange via wifi is a no fucking brainer. I can use DropBox or some other cloud app, but honestly that's a workaround I'd like to avoid. Wouldn't it be cool if you're checking your email on the iPad and there's a phone number listed in someone's sig, and you could click that number and your iPhone would automatically start dialing? I think so. Many people prolly think so. Apple? Who the fuck knows what they think. It probably violates 586 terms of usage for any number of corporations. Who knows.
I mentioned it in another thread, but along the same lines, why the fuck can't we wirelessly sync with iTunes? All this talk about how the future is mobile devices, but I still gotta plug it in to my machine via a hard connection. meh. Fucking MEH.

I still giggle that I can control iTunes playing in another room from my iPhone so I don't have to get off my lazy ass. Is there a more extensive remote app for the iPad?
And I almost pee myself daily that we have 3 computers all sharing libraries wirelessly, no more burning CDs or swapping out external hard drives. The only issue is that while we can stream anything from any computer we can't drag media to a hard drive that is on another computer unless both computers are logged into the same Apple ID and neither me nor my roommate are willing to give the other one that kind of wizard powers.
