It would be great having an ipad Achat 3d version. Just think about being able to use full touch gestures to control caracters and poses. And using a wide spread platform for increasing users.  It would be even better to have the same account in both system.

There was already a discussion on this. First of all, Apple would never allow such an app. Second, there are ways to play the game on an iPad. There is a remote desktop system called LogMeIn that you can load on a desktop and then load on your iPad. Basically, your iPad becomes a remote control, but you can still play the game with it. Another option would OnLive Desktop, but the required service plan is still not being offered. For $10/mo (yes, it's a subscription), you get a Windows 7 computer that loads optimized for iPad, and you can add your own apps. But OnLive still does not offer that plan (says "Coming Soon" but has said that for over a year).

One last option would be Windows 8. Since Windows 8 is designed for touchscreens/tablets, perhaps install AChat on a Windows 8 laptop/tablet hybrid. Unfortunately, from what I've seen (but not sure since I don't own one) AChat cannot be installed on the RT tablets such as Microsoft Surface because there is no desktop, only the metro interface.

While I know this thread is specifically about the Apple iPad, I know there are several threads about tablets in general. One option that will be available soon would be the Intel Microsoft Surface Pro (Runs FULL Windows 8 Pro) which will allow the installation of desktop apps, such as AChat. The Surface Pro is available in a 64GB ($899.99 MSRP) and a 128GB model ($999.99 MSRP)...both come with a type cover (black only) and a pen.

Another option along the same lines would be find Windows "slate" tablets that run full versions of Windows 7 and upgrade them to Windows 8 (if it runs 7, it will run 8). An example of a "slate" is the HP Slate and HP Slate 2. Used HP Slate tablets can be found on eBay for under $400...If you want a Windows Tablet, it MUST have an Intel processor and run Windows 8 Pro...Windows 8 RT WILL NOT RUN ACHAT!!!
