When I discovered IPeng it was like rediscovering the beauty of the SB system that I had all over again. It's a fantastic app. I have two duets with controllers and never use the controllers since getting an iPod touch. I then splurged for an IPad and use both IPeng and SqueezePad. IMO, the SB/App

I am using a SB Touch as a remote only for my modified SB3. Wondering how a Ipod touch with Ipeng compares. Did not think much of the controller as a lot of long titles had to scroll which I found really irritating plus the small screen. Any body have experiences with both and can tell me the adva
