Welcome Mackie Forums Refugees!
well, there's this, which looks like an ipad-sized touchscreen mixer interface from QSC:http://qscmarketing.com/january2014
Well QSC is about to do some damage to Mackie with an 8 and 16 + version including the screen (iPad mini size) along with a WiFi dongle and carrying case and a lot more features. Pricing at $899 and $1299 respectfully.

Not to mention probably 6 months before it ships....
I'm already going down the X32 path. It's now a defacto standard, is accepted on riders (for club/pub gigs), has a large user base and offers the most flexible set of variations of any digital mixer family.
