- when i saw whatour next guest could do with an ipad,i was blown away. all the way from germany, please welcome magiciansimon pierro. i saw something that was onellentube, i think,
appel shares, but i have not seenwhat you're doing today. i'm going to be surprised. - thanks for having me.- okay, thanks for being here. - so you might be surprisedabout a couple of things
that i found outwith the ipad. i don't know ifit ever happened to you, but if you go through like this,this might happen. [audience exclaims] so if does though, don't worry. it's not a software problemor anything. this is just more spacefor your own creativity. - okay. - so can you see that string?
- yes.- here? thanks to the string,i stop it, and i do have accessto a whole new set of new apps, all a bit betterthan the old ones. so thanks to this string,i can actually show you my last 2,000 picturesfrom my vacation. [laughter]don't worry. i won't show you all of them,ellen. i'll just show you the overview,'cause that way, i can easily
print them. which is fantastic. my parents, they do not havean ipad, so i just put it on a postcard and send it backall the way to germany. - uh-huh.[laughter] - but before i do so,i always make a copy. otherwise,the data might get lost. i know this app doesn't makeany sense, but it's fun,
and i think facetime is as well. so let me call a friend of mine. i hope he's ready. if you are too.that is you. - yes.- that's the audience. - uh-huh.- and--hi, christoph. - hi, simon.- can you hear me? - yes, i can hear you. - okay. are you ready?- i'm ready.

but also coke. [slurping] it's excellent. but i can alsogive something back. he doesn't know about that. some coconut milkfrom california. - [speaking indistinctly]- one second, please. and here we go.milk is coming. [laughter]
