There are quite a few more apps available, and wouldn't doubt that more are added over the next couple of days.
Fingerlab has released it's previously iOS only Drum Machine software for Mac OS X.
I have had the iPhone version for awhile and have only tinkered with it. Hoping to get into the OS X version and really learn how to create realistic drum tracks and then possibly that will lead to some advanced tinkering in the iOS version.
According to their description on the Mac Appstore
DM1 for OSX is fully compatible with DM1 for iPad, you can share files between them.
