Ipeng is suffering from some very bad programming which can be experienced as "appear to be dead" while waiting for server response. All too often iPeng seems totally dead and does nothing no matter what you click or do. It can remain dormant for up to 30 seconds or even a minute while a busy LMS server is working, during which time it is completely unresponsive to any user input even if you attemtp to break out and cancel. Often when you launch iPeng it fails to remember which player it was last connected to and seems to pick one by random. This all too often result in playback somewhere else than intended (another room or even at home when I'm in the office). I have never had this experience with SqueezePad. Also, SqueezePad shows a clean and intuitive playlist view which is easily editable. I can add and remove songs individually. The SqueezePad display the album list and artist list almost instantly while iPeng uses a lot of time to do this, during which it is totally unresponsive (dormant, dead). I guess the only good thing I can say about the Ipeng is that the iPhone version gives you local playback if you pay extra. But then again, so does SqueezeCast - and it is free! So, my advice; definitely SqueezePad! (untill iPeng can be designed using concurrent multi-threaded code).
