During his keynote speech at QuakeCon 2010, id Software's John Carmack demonstrated Rage on the iPhone, running at 60 frames-per-second and able to "kill anything done on the Xbox or PlayStation 2."

IMO there is a much better option available at the same price – AmpKit (free) AmpKit+ ($19.99) and the hardware AmpKit Link $39.99.Thw Link is just a better interface than the iRig, it has a longer cord (very useful with an iPad), and more importantly, it uses 2 batteries for an active circuit which reduces feedback and crosstalk especially in high gain situations. It is a better choice even if you use the Amplitube software.The software is also better, there is a greater variety of effects and amps (including multichannel amps). you can run more effects at once, and it allows for saving named presets.The company is also better. Amplitube was introduced as an iPhone app, than an iPad version was introudced ONE WEEK LATER at full price. They could have delayed the release by a week or sold a universal app to not screw early adopters, but they didn't. AmpKit has announced that their iPad app will be a free universal upgrade. ISO to AVI I like that Google is getting into this arena. The more the merrier! Competition between these huge companies can only be good for the consumer. No idea how successful this will be (as always, it will come down to selection and implementation), but I welcome their contributions.Personally, I prefer iBooks implementation much more than the others, but their selection leaves a lot to be desired. Amazon and B&N have the opposite problem, IMO. If Google can borrow from the best of both, they could have a real winner.
