Duet is the first app that allows you to use your iDevice as an extra display for your Mac.
What am I missing about this sentence that seems to make "the first" false in the face of things like Air Display?

It's tethered using lightning cable.

#44I've been using Air Display for a long time for when I'm on the go. Does anybody have experience with both and which is better? Never really had problems with Air Display - if you don't expect it to work as a full external display. However lag has always been very manageable for me

#45Anything like this available for Windows? Wouldn't be bad for an email/IM screen.

Seriously. I was going to give away my first gen ipad but due to being so outdated it seemed more of an imposition than a gift.
What's wrong with it? I have a first gen iPad and it still works fine. In fact I almost wish it would die already so that I would have a valid excuse to buy a new one.
Most kids games won't run on it.

You could have used Air Display :) I do really like this use though, never thought of using my old iPad as a permanent extra display.

Product launches tomorrow, so hardly any comparisons can be made. It seems to be promising - wired connection means higher bandwidth and improved latency. Supposedly can do Retina resolutions at 60hz.

Mine is full of kids games. Admittedly I've run across one or two games that didn't work, but it's not like I've ever experienced a lack of available kids games.

I see now, I should have been reading better - my bad. I also read in this thread that Air Display had some troubles with Yosemite, but I haven't updated on my work machine yet so I hadn't seen these problems.
Streaming over USB seems promising though, I needed to plug in my iPad for the battery.
