Looks like a great way to pass time on my lunch break.

Anyone tried it? What's it like?

This looks neat and usefull. Finally a reason (exuse) to get an ipod! At $10 it seems a steal. Keep us posted if you get it. E

i bought this for my ipad yesterday, will report back, but basic operation seems sound, no jfets though

although there are bipolars and mosfets.

the interface it quite neat and i was able to sketch out an idea i had in semi slumber this morning on the bus and waddaya know it works

depth of the device models is pretty shallow, but for doing exactly what i did today, just quickly determining if an idea will work and finding rough operating conditions, its excellent.

Nice, sounds good!

Do you have an ipad or ipad2? I have heard it sometimes has trouble running on the ipad with complex models.

Ordered my ipad2 a few days ago....I will never have to leave the couch again!

Fair comment. Just thought I would ask.

Sounds like you got a good deal!

I DL'ed it last night and its a nice shallow learning curve. I went looking for more models this morning and don't see any out there though.

Works *really* well as a quick design scratch pad - and that on an original iPad - perhaps it could get dicey on a more complex circuit, but no issues thus far.
