UnRealBook allows you to make Playlists from the songs already on your iPad.
You can use the build in Camera to actually take a photo of sheet music from another musicians book and convert it to a PDF, create a bookmark, and add it to your playlist in about 40 seconds.
UnRealBook uses bookmarks so if you have a sheet in a FakeBook on page 532, simply create a bookmark add it to your playlist and when you select that song, it will automatically display that page without delay.
UnRealbook will allow Sync to all the iPads in a band to turn the page at the same time from One pedal (leader/conductor).
It has a built in music player so you can link an MP3 to sheet music and play the song from your playlist.
You can have Multiple Playlists.
You can re-order your playlists easily by using drag-and-drop.
You can annotate music/scores on the fly and they retain the notation.
You can edit/create your own lyrics or add lyrics to a song.

Although I don't yet have an ipad, I am planning on purchasing one in the near future and a friend told me about an app he uses on his call Onsong, which is the best app for worship leaders using an ipad. It will import charts and songs directly from Song Select (the library service of CCLI license holders, which avery church and ministry should have) and has all the features you need for leading worship including bluetooth technology for sharing your list with other musicians and doing page turns, pulling up songs on the fly, etc.

and on, and on, and on.
This is why I like it.
Ditto to everything Al has said. I do use Good Reader it's a great app, just don't use it for lead sheets, but for owner's manuals and a ton of other important PDFs.

I prefer the PageFlip versus the "AirTurn". It's a neat self contained pedal with rubber backing so it doesn't slide all over the floor.

I sometimes sing over Karaoke tracks. I am using a netbook but want something smaller. Does anyone know if Ipad or Android has an app to play them. It must be able to change key and import files from my pc.
I could use MP3 and scan the lyrics, but I have a good size library of MP3&G as well as CD&G. Bernie

I recently got iGigBook. Has a crazy great fake book index. You can add your own PDFs too. Does set lists. Doesn't have the annotation features of UnRealBook. I'm going to use it on a job this weekend.

I create playlists with my GoodReader also. It is very easy to use - doesn't require additional hardware and is updated as the author makes improvements. If you are using leadsheets as opposed to 2-staff piano music most of them fit on one screen - no page turning needed!
I downloaded all these programs - the cost was well under $50.00 for all of them and after trying them I landed on GoodReader.
