I thought that I'd just use my phone if I couldn't find a way to stream. Most of the time I won't have internet when I'm travelling and anyway the content I want to watch is already put onto my phone. I just thought it would be nice to be able to access it on the iPad.

I have never used Plex, does it use wifi to stream between the devices as I won't be able to connect them to a common wifi (except adhoc/direct/hotspot).
I'm guessing I have to buy Plex on both platforms separately, I see it's £3.99 in the Appstore and £3.30 in app purchase on Google Play, shame there's no option to test it and make sure I'm happy first.
Considering just taking my phone for the 2 weeks, but as so much of the time is travelling, many, many hours of flights and trains I just thought the iPad would be a nicer screen to use.
