Yo, Jay - yep, got something I REALLY want: a very cool sequencer 
for iPad for external synths. Im sure this will be huge - 
everyone is going to buy it and you will get rich :-)

For anyone who hasn't read the news: here's a link:

"CoreMIDI could be huge for iOS music apps, because it provides 
standardized MIDI support. It is a built-in system that supports 
MIDI devices and how they communicate with other applications.

MIDI support means that the iPad could be a touchscreen control 
surface for any MIDI device; developers will be able to create 
multi-touch sequencers that control MIDI hardware; and you should 
be able to plug your MIDI keyboard into an iPhone, iPod touch or 
iPad and play your iOS software synths."

"Developers should be able to code apps with MIDI support, rather 
than having to support individual interfaces. CoreMIDI could also 
open up using the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit for connecting 
existing USB MIDI devices.

Developers are already starting to support MIDI hardware on iOS, 
with devices like the Line 6 MIDI Mobilizer interface, This trend 
is likely to explode, though, with CoreMIDI support."
