That's super exciting news!

"Developers should be able to code apps with MIDI support, rather than having to support individual interfaces. CoreMIDI could also open up using the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit for connecting existing USB MIDI devices."

Thank GOD.

Finally.

S1 MIDI Trigger looks super configurable:

MIDI Monitor for iPad (free)

Test & monitor MIDI hardware with iOSMidi.com's MIDI Monitor.

MIDI Touch for iPad

"MIDI Touch is the ultimate MIDI controller - it allows you to create your own custom controllers by placing knobs, sliders and other controls onto the screen wherever you want.
Send MIDI over Wi-Fi with latency as low as 2-5ms, and now with iOS 4.2 you can connect compatible MIDI hardware devices directly to iPad for near-zero latency using the Camera Connection Kit."

Amos: Physics-based control app: a reactive MIDI instrument for the iPad that sends MIDI notes over a wireless network

"In Amos’s physics-simulated room, collisions between objects trigger MIDI notes. Up to three duration discs (half note, quarter note, eighth note) can be grabbed and thrown around the room.
Think MIDI wind-chimes crossed with a pinball machine."

AC-7 Core

"The AC7-Core is a wireless control surface utilizing CoreMIDI for simple setup and reliable operation."

Here we are.

iOS4.2 MIDI implementation has arrived.

But what of the clock support?

I haven't heard a thing.

Wow, very cool. Tnx for the link. It's bizarre indeed that more has not been made of the new ability to clock sync. Which is, of course, a total game changer.

1.0.3 update to Molten adds MIDI sync.

Korg iMS-20 adds USB MIDI support:
"MS-20 Synth and Drum machine can be played by external MIDI devices (via Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit)"
