Yes James good pickup...

Following on from Scotts comments on another thread, and also from Stephens, this iPad is looking better and better. Now with MIDI capability...

I may have to re-investigate one and replace my XT2 touch notebook..

Thanks people, all good info

Dennis

James thanks for the link. Dennis, my expectations were never all that high for the iPad. Originally, my wife and I bought them to use as e-book readers as well as to use for e-mail and browsing the web. Turns out it's so much more than I imagined.

Cool Stephen...My only issue now, after having done a bit more research over the last twenty minutes or so, is the screen is too small.

At only 9.7" diagonally measured, it has a lot smaller screen space than my lappy at 12" diagonally..

Be good for books though, I can see that, but for my charts, not big enough...bummer, what a cool bit of gear though.

Dennis that is the one negative the screen really could be a bit larger.

Have you seen this guys?
It's running Win7 and it's cheaper than the iPad.

Nice find looks like this has potential and the screen is 6 by 11 inches, weighs just over 2 pounds. Very cool
