Once sheet music is in the iPad, there is so much more you can do with it. Add a wireless mic/acoustic pickup and the right software and you have an iPad that can listen to you play. As some of our readers imagined, this would make it possible for the iPad to know when to automatically turn the page. Moreover, adding Rockband-like-qualities to the sheet music software turns your iPad into a music teacher/trainer.
