Bernt.. Sounds like an iPod switcher.. Big whoopie..First of all, it doesn't let you scratch, in the turntablist sense. There's just no physical way to recreate the vinyl experience with tracks that are still inside the iPod. You'd have to sample the tunes into some kind of memory first, and by that point, you might as well connect one or two of Pioneer's virtual turntables for CDs and DVDs.
Also, there's no way for the iDJ to loop beats on the fly, or adjust the tempo of songs. Unless you find songs that already have matching tempos, you won't be able to fade from one band to the next as if they shared a drummer.
Take away scratching, looping, and tempo synching and what have you got? Say you're going to DJ a party. With two iPods already docked and charging, you don't have to worry about plugging in extra power or audio cables. You can use the trackwheels on the iDJ to easily navigate the contents of your iPods. You can preview one song while the other is playing, and independently adjust the treble, midrange and bass of each.
Is this a vu ja de?
