I think I'd mix it down to mono as well for that setup. Nobody is
likely to hear much of a stereo image and anyone sitting close to one

recent thread that discussed how
LRLR makes sense. I'll give that a try.

The point is that you have no idea how your iPad would perform if it
supported Flash.
Would you want it to run only 3h on a battery load and have sloppy
scrolling performance?

Well, Apple users have to use iTunes so quite a lot of them have already
experienced how much it sucks and are well willing to avoid solutions
involving it wherever possible.
Luckily you can avoid it from iOS 5 on... Although not for things like
