    I am looking at that, but it raises problems for a lag-free experience and requires a very stable web-connection (better than for HD streaming) since you can't buffer in the same way you can video.
    Putting a bespoke infrastructure together for this would be too big an investment, I've looked at open-source webcam and video code but not sure they are viable for real-time.

    But the main issue is requiring web connection - whole point of an iPad is you can take it in the field where coverage may be lousy.Offline rendering is more a publicity stunt for my product at this time.
    This is where you are wrong. If you are able to smugly flash it in your local Starbucks then it has served its purpose.

      Tablet computing has caught the public's imagination - even my great aunt has got an iPad.
      I compare it more to a Nintendo DS than to a laptop.

      And just because my oldest daughter loves her DS , it does not mean I have a need for it.

        It's a great product don't get me wrong.

        It just doesn't excite me in the same way as say..... a big pile of cash or a 23 yr old underwear model in a revealing dress.

        It's just a toy really. Great for kids and sad geeks.

          My target is for business/corporate users. In all likelihood it is just as much a gimmick for my software to run on iPads, but if they want it I'm happy to provide

            Try using your phone every once in a while then.


            On Apple, you may get the occasional app crash back to the home screen, but I've never seen it take the device with it, needing a hard reboot. Unlike Android & Windows devices.


            On the other hand you are an odious little troll who will say anything just to try and get a rise out of people.

            So, just for you.

                Android never crashes for me either.

                The applications running on it aer a different matter altogether but android does handle their crashes quite gracefully

                  Not had an Android crash either but neither the phone or the tablet are stuffed with apps.
