Reading MacLife magazine and there seems to be a new wave of DJ's now using just a midi-controller & 2 iPads to DJ with. Seems like the next big thing in DJ technology.

iPod DJ'ing never really took off, so I doubt people are going to drop the money for two iPads just so they can use them as pseudo-decks with an intermediary MIDI-controller.

maybe as a novelty item...:haha:
i see the opposite happening right now..with djs like sasha going back to cds...and vinyl doing pretty good to..of course its never going to come back on top again ...but it will never die either...but stuff like this will come and go its just a fad...

THE VERDICT
Its highly unlikely the Ipad offering will come close to replacing your laptop anytime soon.
2 ipads? What a waste. Is it really so gimped you cannot have two decks on one?

The iPad obviously is a much better choice than the Lemur, so anyone using something like the Lemur will be better off using it and will be glad to see these developments.
For me personally I think it's pretty neat. I will probably buy an iPad some time in the future, and then I can also use apps like Griid to use it as an extra controller :D
stop messing with ipads. go change your pad, and get back in the kitchen. Leave DJing to people that actually know what they're doing.

maybe for some midi control here and there, sure, but it will never replace cdjs/laptop dj'ing
