Just as the title says, I'm trying to figure out who has the most impressive iPad application available: Control 4, Elan g!, Elk or HAI?

When voting, please take these three tenets into consideration:

1. User Interface. How intuitive and understandable is the app? Are there pleasant/natural animations and transitions between buttons and screens. Is the app aesthetically pleasing?

2. Speed / Connectivity. How responsive is the application from picking up the device to accomplishing a task? Is it fast to login? Is it speedy when accessing from outside of the home network (via iPhone over 3g, as an example)

3. Feature completeness. Are there significant features missing from the iPad version of the application? Does the company release updates very often? Are there too many bugs?

Feel free to add additional information in your posts!
 
Not many CT members have tried all 4, or even 2 of those.

I didn't vote because I haven't tried any of them.

If it means so much to you, buy a plane ticket to Indianapolis and attend CEDIA in Sept. And please, post back with your results.
 
I have an iPad2 and use the eKeypad from Jayson Calloway for the iPhone which converts to work with the iPad screen to control the M1 in my house. It works great with lots of features and options like viewing your IP cameras. Jayson is adding a new feature to be able to customize the screen so that you can make the look and feel that you want.

Another option is to use a remote control program like LogMeIn for the iPad and use one of the PC based control programs for the ELK M1 and control the M1 through your home PC.

Note: I am biased!!!
