Woah, do you know if this works with the new retina display iMacs?
I know this is nit-picky, but Duet is not "the first app that allows you to use your iDevice as an extra display". It's not even the second. There's an opportunity here for better copy to differentiate themselves. Also, I've always thought this would reduce the life of your ipad. Has anyone noticed this?
How? Like the display burning out or something? Maybe something battery related?

Wrong. I have been using my iPad as an extra display for my MacBook Air for about 2 1/2 years using the AirDisplay (getairdisplay.com). It is odd that this company would place a large lie as the first readable text.
Duet is the first app that allows you to use your iDevice as an extra display for your Mac using the Lightning or 30-pin cable.
This app uses a cable. All the other apps use wifi.
> the first app that allows you to use your iDevice as an extra display for your Mac I stumbled upon iDisplay.com the other day. Can't recommend anything though, I'm not an apple user, I was looking for ways to replicate my android phone display in my desktop Linux.

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.
Did you upgrade iOS to version 5? I did, and it's never been the same since. I can now barely use the web browser without it crashing. Some domains are totally unusable; appears to be related to javascript use. Low-impact sites, such as HN, are OK. Other apps (such as the app store and many games) are very prone to crashing, too. There's very little I can use it for now without getting frustrated and giving up.

Did you find anything worth using for your use case?
Not really: I tried android-screencast [1] but had to root my phone, the framerate was terrible, lots of crashes, touch gestures not really satisfying. The other option was using genymotion, works well, but some apps can't be installed multiple times (whatsapp I'm looking at you). If anyone knows a better way to do so, thank you in advance!

The line "An additional display increases productivity by up to 48%." is particularily funny. I wonder how they "measured" this. A Macbook Air 11" + extra display is quite different from a Macbook Pro 15" + extra display.

You did not read the whole sentence. Duet is the first app that allows you to use your iDevice as an extra display for your Mac using the Lightning or 30-pin cable. This app uses a cable. All the other apps use wifi.
