But does your left hand lead with the forefinger or the pinky? That's the real question.

You'll have to excuse me. I'm in New Orleans.

@ Loops - You are the man. I've been following all your endless debacle's that you have had with MIDI & iOS. This is really fKn good news. Can't wait to finally start incorporating a iPad into the rig come a few weeks from now.
PS - I'm totally with you 100% - This is the future.

Thankfully your services have not been needed as of yet. We'll see. At this point I just want to get home and try out these apps you're praising. (I'd go back to the hotel and download them tonight but the wife would not take kindly to me departing this wedding reception early)

Oh Sweet Jebus. This works over Bluetooth as well. You don't need a wifi network. I just successfully paired my iPhone to my iPad and it worked perfectly. The sync was totally stable.
Another. Game. Changer.

You talk about needing wi-fi networks, but isn't it possible to connect the devices by creating a network in the Airport menu on the laptop? Of course if you're only using the mobile devices then the bluetooth is the way to go.

Yeah, absolutely. When I say 'needing wifi' I was also talking about ad hoc wifi created via the laptop.
I'm just amazed that Bluetooth works.

Ok LSZ..
Just a quick thanks...
#1 - For kicking this dead horse until it wakes up and starts running.
#2 - For keeping us informed so we can benefit from your Beta.
