Ipad Performance Upgrades
Im looking to get an ipad to incorporate into my setup was wondering if there is a big difference on speed im just going to run probably touchosc, liine, apps like those will it make a noticable difference between 1st Gen to 2nd Gen or 2nd Gen to 3rd…any recommendations or insight would help
First gen iOS updates are finished .. ios5 is the last update so if you are going to buy one I’d go for 2nd gen or higher.
TouchOSC and Lemur run flawlessly on a first gen device, same goes with most synths.
Fixed for you 
Most apps still work with iOS 4 and control apps aren’t too intensive on the device. The only ones that are asking for the latest hardware are (as always) games. 1st gen ipad still has some life left in it. Things will change once the second gen goes out and they only focus on retina programming.
You don’t the shiniest new device to DJ
If you can get a newer one for a good price go for it, I prefer the bulkier design of the first one.
That link just crashed safari on my iPad 1 
I have the original iPad and it runs just about any controller app I can think of but I’ve hardly used it for anything produtive or dj’ing. My son uses it to whatch cartoons and play some games on. But if you are going to get an iPad I would sugest going for a new as it will be more future proof.
Padi_04, have you tried creating any TouchOSC mappings/layouts to utilize the remix decks in Traktor 2.5? Just wondering how functional this could become over an F1 (I’m sure not 100%, but if it could get to 85% it is worth consideration).
Chrome for iOS is out 
and it’s pretty nice!
Yes it is. I have already stuffed Safari in the Apple junk folder on my iPhone and iPad.
