Looks nice.
Looks great ..although I have an ipad 3 right now and wil be upgrading to ipad 5 when it comes out.
Not sure if this will fit the new models. Is there any info on which model this was created for? (all models are shaped differently
The main question with Bluetooth is latency, isn’t it? How has this issue been addressed?
Bluetooth Low-Energy is not comparable to former versions of Bluetooth. The latency is much much lower with BLE. Also, MIDI data is not very complex. So the data packages are much smaller than for example what Bluetooth audio speakers with have to receive.
Cool. Just when I was considering an iPad case!
