Im looking at getting an old Ipad to put HL on so I can use a tablet at the table.. what is the minimum generation I would need to have HL work on an Ipad?
Thanks... |

Last I knew an iPad 2 would work, but I'd get whatever the one you can afford with the most RAM because HL is very memory intensive

I've considered an iPad solely for Hero Lab (I dislike Apple and have multiple Android tablets, but since it's not supported ... yet) I'd probably look at a mini 2 if you're trying to save some money, it's around $300 and has 1GB of RAM. You can't get more unless you get an Air 2 which is expensive as all heck.
Other option is also get a Surface Pro 3 running Windows, but even the cheap ones are around $700. |

I would love to at least know if it's in the pipeline, even if it's as obscure as "we want it to happen, we're tentatively planning on it to happen, and just haven't started on it yet." |

Has anyone tried using Hero Lab on one of those Atom-powered Windows tablets?

I would like to see the UI get more touch friendly or the "Tablet Mode" option be enabled. |

I'd think it'd be too small, although I'd consider if it had blue tooth

Maybe not helpful but the new 64bit version of the HL app runs REALLY nice on the iPad Air and Air 2's. Just mentioning if your going to spend the money maybe better to get something that will last many years.
