I wasn't really thinking that far, but yes, proper support for 
handheld devices would be nice. :-)

Apart from a pure fun toy, it might actually serve as a nice and quick 
pocket size tool for turning ideas into music, that you can transfer 
to a proper sequencer later. (Of course, there'll be a stand-alone 
version of the IFFT synth engine, in case you dial in some nice 
sounds.)
