I have been using my new iPad Air 2 with EzyPAASS now for a few weeks. I have found it to be thin and light enough to use in the bigger format (preivously i prefered an iPad mini due to weight considerations). It is also faster and seems to be much more stable when connecting back to the Filemaker host. Whether this is due to OSX 10.10, iOS8, the iPad or a combination of the three I am not sure.
