Ofcourse you use a local image cache on the iPad, that's the beauty of having SSD/Flash based storage at you fingertips, it will be VERY fast if implemented properly on the iPad.

And now with the iPad 2, dualcore near 1GHz CPU plus even faster GFX processor, then you have a Sooloos solution that could eclipse even what we see on the Control platform. Especially the smooth hardware assisted fullscreen scrolling of the iPad would do wonders for coverart. Away with the pages and instead a seamless scroll or "jump" if you need to. Ahh, getting carried away here.. Would I buy the Sooloos? - Hell Yeah!
