I've been more impressed with the iPhone related projects than the iPad ones so far. But I love the whole Kickstarter concept.
I backed the
Scandy, which funds in a few days, and they're working on the possibility of adding an iPad 2 attachment for direct scanning with the iPad. (Since the iPhone has a way better camera, I'll be sticking with that one.)
Bought the
Olloclip interchangeable iPhone 4 lenses about two weeks ago (well after it was funded), and my only regret is that I didn't find it soon enough to get the Kickstarter price! These are awesome--if they don't come out with a revised model whenever the iPhone 5/6/42/whatever comes out next year, I may be stuck with the 4/4s body style forever, because these lenses would make that a sacrifice I could live with. LOL
And I keep eyeing the
iSteadi (steadicam type mount for phones). The problem with that one is a problem I see with a number of Kickstarter projects--people seem to think, "Oh, I have this great idea, I'll just put it up here and watch the money roll in!" No promotion, no publicity, too few updates on Kickstarter...no funding. I'm just not sure this one's going to make it, but heck, I'll back it anyway and hope for the best.
The Sensu paintbrush looks appealing. But for me, it would be one of those things I'd buy, try once, remember that I've never learned to paint, and then throw in a drawer. LOL The Levitatr keyboard just looks too bulky to me, though I see the mega geek appeal for it. Bet it ends up in ThinkGeek's inventory eventually.
Any other good ones? Wish someone would put one up for a good, lightweight, waterproof iPad case for reading in the tub...
