Pros and cons of ProCutX for Final Cut Pro X app for iPhone and iPad

ProCutX for Final Cut Pro X app good for

So bad wast of money want me to go on I still have 5939 characters left
Get this app, it just saved me $1400 on a new console. I would recommend to anyone who wants to save some time and take there editing to the next level.
Just because you dont know how to work it doesnt mean its not good! Come on guys, give it a chance!
Please add missed FCPX feature: fast forward (can be emulated by constant speed skimming, twice faster then normal playback).

Some bad moments

I cant Tell, how its working, because I didnt get the server software for my Mac. I had to enter my email to get the download. Instead of the software I got Spam. Every day...
I ordered this on Friday and its now Sunday and still no code emailed to me (which is necessary for it to work with FCPX). Not impressed so far with that delay especially when the app is priced at $24.99
Did everything the instructions say to in the Mac OS download file. I am running latest Mountain Lion, on an iPad mini with latest OS, running the latest Final Cut Pro X, did the custom keyboard commands and made sure it was selected... Tried creating a private network even... Nothing shows up in the Available ProcutX servers list on my iPad...
They never sent me link for server so I would give them a fail.
Waste of money!! Connection between Mac and iPad is quite casual ( in 50% connection fails). It demands installation of some "FinalCut Server" in system preference pane and this so called "server" causes crashes of system preference pane. This app crashes on iPad very often as well. The work with Final Cut using this app is IMPOSSIBLE!! Dont recommend anyone. Give me my money back!!!
I agree with the previous poster that all of the positive reviews must be from employees as this app does not work at all. I have a brand new machine running a clean install of 10.8.2 and FCPX 10.7 and on the few occasions that I can get the app to connect to FCPX the interface does not control any FCP functions. The jog dial occasional will scrub the audio but does nothing else. This app is a complete scam. Whats worse is that they have no support available on their site - no FAQs, no forum not even a troubleshooting section so you cannot get any support from them. Stay away, and save your money.
