I believe Formulator can be used with an I-Pad.

I couldn't get Formulator to work but I also didn't try too hard because I didn't expect it to work. I will try it tonight using Photon which is a Safari alternative that runs Flash. http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/photo...430200224?mt=8

Twinspires' FAQ says that they work on mobile, including iPhones and iPads, though it depends on how up-to-date your mobile device is.

I have one and use the IPad for watching races and it works great. Imagine being at a restaurant and being able to keep up with racing without having to bother with a large computer.

A little too small for reading PP's.

I use the ipad often and I love it. It works great with NYRA Rewards, I can bet and watch races. I have found it does not work as well with drf bets.

The ipad probably works better for me than most because I am old school and still buy a print Racing Form to handicap with, I just do not like downloading and printing PP's like many do today. The drawback is typing information into it which can be annoying at times. I just got a wireless keyboard that works with it which will help run it more like a computer.

I have found that the ipad lies somewhere between your computer and an iphone. It has its purpose but it does not totally replace either one of those devices.

I agree about the wireless keyboard. Using the on-screen keyboard feels like typing with frostbite.
