We love Kickstarter. For every cockamamie idea (or ten) that gets posted, you see something genuinely interesting. Like the iTar ($200
 and up). Submitted by longtime makers of button-based guitar 
fretboards, the iTar combines one of these legendary ‘boards with an 
iPad case/dock, offering nearly endless possibilities for music creation
 and manipulation, all while holding something that looks like a guitar,
 but has an iPad for a body.
