New gadget allows hands-free page-turning of music on iPad

PostFri Jul 23, 2010 8:33 pm

Here is an article (and video) at Wired.com on a new gadget to allow musicians to turn the pages of their music, as displayed on the iPad, by using a foot.

It's called the Airturn, and works via BlueTooth. No, not BluRay; that's something else.

There have been devices like this around for years. It's just new to iPad users.

The ipad is just the right size to use this application for marching band musicians....

Yeah, that's a bonehead suit, IMO. Can Apple countersue for the plaintiff's lack of common sense?
