That's pretty much called ChemDoodle. It's not the WebGL, it's the
JavaScript that has to run it that is pretty low power. I have yet to see a
large protein rendered well, and so far I have not seen 100,000 triangles
for a surface rendered at all. My plan is to leave that to others.
Frankly, I'll be amazed if Apple can survive the competition to their iPad.
Flat out, the Android tablet I have goes way beyond the iPad in its
capabilities and interface (and friendliness to developers), and I cannot
imagine why one would ever spend so much money for an iPad these days.
