Back-To-School App? GoodReader for iPad!
From
The iPad Fan:
It’s back-to-school time around the country and as students head off to classes I started thinking about what one app I’d have to recommend the most. I thought about iTunes U, and Dropbox, but in the end, I decided that out of everything I’ve used to make the iPad as useful as possible, GoodReader is my top choice.Labels: GoodReader, iPad

The app provides collision detection out to 60 miles, CPA calculations, basic GPS data, and MMSI numbers so you can hail nearby vessels directly. Boat Beacon is available for iPhones only, and it goes for $9.99 on the iTunes store."

Review: BugMe! Stickies Pro for iPhone and iPad
From
Radiant Reviews:
There are many different colored post it notes that you can choose from. You can also choose to take your own picture and use that as your note background which is pretty cool. You can also assign a particular note a due date, so it will remind you and the note will appear letting you know that your appointment is coming up. It works via push notifications, and it works extremely well. I have been very pleased with its overall functionality.Labels: BugMe, Electric Pocket, iPad, iPhone

Using an iPad for your next presentation? Here are the apps you need
From
Forbes Magazine:
I looked long and hard for this app and tried a bunch of others before I settled on Goodreader. Basically, it’s a way to store files on your iPad. What’s the big deal? You can easily store video, pdfs, slides, etc – and then play or view them with a click or two. With the right adaptor, you’re set to play video clips with the least muss and fuss I’ve found so far. And it’s real easy to move video files from computer to iPad with a drag and drop when your iPad is syncing.

Compass Eye: I’m Sailing Away
From
Gizmodo:
An augmented reality app that's actually useful is a rare find. Compass Eye produces a real time compass that's overlaid on top of the iPhones camera view. Sailors can set multiple bearings and switch between magnetic north and true north.
The app is marketed specifically for sailing, but it can be used for hiking, biking, really anything where you need to set a specific bearing. The app's compass works way better than the iOS default compass and I don't have to wave my iPhone in the air every time I launch the app. The app also features a camera zoom.

Make Music Videos on Your iOS Device with Video Star
From
Run Around Tech:
There is a new application available in the app store that allows you to record your very own music videos. This application is called Video Star, the app is centered around the idea that making your own music videos can be easy. The developers of Video Star have made it just that, all you have to do is select a song, record a video in sync with the music, and if you want add video effects on the fly. Another feature that really catches my attention is the integration of YouTube uploading, and sharing via Facebook, Twitter, and email.

MailTones is an amazing app that gives iPhone and iPad users an alternative to the dull email message tone you hear when you receive a new email.

WritePad for iPad App Review
From
iPhoneGlance:
The interface is designed brilliantly with a little plus icon at the top left indicating a new document.
The brilliance doesn’t stop there, with a host of easy to use gestures like making a right angle J shape to gesture the enter command. As well as the very easy shorthand tools like putting in the date in your document, all you need to do is write the word date with your finger and then put a circle around it. It even has a built in calculator that you can write simple or even complex mathematic equations and it will calculate it and then put it into your text area.
