My iPad is verging on obsolete and I want to put it to use.  Anyone hacked their to function as an oscilloscope?

No hacking needed!
Just download a oscilloscope app!
There should be several options available...

I meant the probes with the old 30 pin connectors

I've seen some for sale but they're priced a bit ridiculously.

Tonepad has an etchable PCB for the 30 pin port...  Could come in handy for this.
