To ensure maximal performance, battery time and no disturbances I like to be able to run MSPro on a tablet that has everything stripped/disabled/blocked as far as possible. Only BlueTooth for the pedal. (Most of the time venues for gigs do not provide WiFi anyway but even when they do I switch it off -- no disturbances.)
So I think for an app like MSPro it is necessary to be able to run without network and without being dependent on dubious services (i.e. Google). Yes, I know you currently cannot avoid Google services, but it is worth to consider it.
sciurius,
If you run MSPro without WiFi, it's fine. Only when you are connected to a WiFi router without access to the Internet. When our band gigs, we plug in a simple wireless router (pretty much any one will do) - obviously there is no connection to the Internet. Then use the "Connect Table" feature of MSPro and I (who is leading) can bring up any song and I also use a bluetooth pedal to change pages (for everyone). Although I could, I never rely on other venue networks (and routers are pretty cheap). MSPro is quite slick!
