nice ! very nice!
Very easy setup!
One thing i didnt find, i dunno if it is even possible, is how i play audio/video directly to the ipad with it? Is that even possible?
Also theres a new version coming?

The only downside I see is that I have to scroll to often. I feel there is so much wasted space when a cover or banner view is on my screen. I really hope that it is something you had in mind for the next version...
I really like a screen with as much covers you can fit without it being too crowded! Maybe different view available like other remote app have, would be a nice touch. But even with that, this is still the best for xbmc and I tried all of them.
Sadly, iTunes is being a complete pain the butt for me right now so I can't check on my iPad right now (don't ask), but yes, there's been tweaks to the GUI on both the iPhone and iPad to help utilize the screen real-estate more... (especially to accommodate all the new features and stuff). No idea if they are planning on adding 'multiple views', but that'd be a great idea... I've been meaning to mention to them about maybe a view for TV shows that uses the logo.png instead of folder.jpg/poster.jpg/banner.jpg which pending on how it's scaled would put a lot of the shows on the screen at once reducing the scrolling as well.
