I bought an iPad for the wife's bday last week; I frickin love this thing! I just have to be careful to not use it too much or she'll think I bought it for myself

iOS 4.2 just went gold to developers! Should just be a matter of time before it leaks out for public download and I'm gonna jump on it as soon as it does

I don't have any airplay capable devices

I see, yeah I guarantee I don't have that. Probably need an Apple TV or other airplay device on the network for that button to show up.

I have the ipad. But I'm waiting to get my hands on a Samsung Galaxy tab, or Viewsonic Viewpad 7. The Viewpad 10 will dual boot android and Win7, but only Android 1.6. I heard that it may have Gingerbread with Win 7 Dualboot though.

yeah it's pretty sweet.
But this Airprint thing is part of itunes 10.1 which means yet another process to run in the background. I pray to god that iTunes doesn't have to be open to in order to print. I also want to know if airprint supports shared printers. I don't want to have to put itunes on my server in order to print from it, if I could choose my shared printers that are on my server via my desktop PC that'd be OK. Still don't like the idea of another process running, I wish it used native printing support

I haven't had any issues with my apps yet not supporting multitasking. I would think that these universal iPhone/ipad apps that if they support iOS4 then they should work fine on the iPad.
I wonder if Limera1n works?
