iPad Apps

[ThomserveBAS]

I know there was a suggestion for an alternative PDF/document reader on the previous page, but I would recommend GoodReader - it supports a wide range of formats and can connect to various services such as Samba, AFP, FTP, Dropbox, Google Docs etc.

You can set up sync profiles between it and your chosen server, so I use it to have a synced copy of my business documents. Means I always have them to hand, and if I add a document remotely it syncs to my home server next time I perform a sync.

It's also great for reading PDF magazines outside of business hours

Someone (I think it was cojak) recommended pear note for note taking. It records the conversation as you go which makes understanding the context of your comment easy to follow.

I'm resurrecting this thread because I just bought an iPad... I've been through the suggestions in here so far. Good stuff.

Any more ? <waits eagerly>

Thanks!

Things - best list writing/keeping app I've found yet

Worth £13 ?

I guess it's hard to judge until you try it.

13quid! Is that what i paid?... Looks at istore... Hmm yup 15€, wow, i really should look at the cost of these things more closely...

What can I say, I like lists. It is a very useful app, but on reflection I'm not sure I would pay 13quid for it, but then again I do use it a lot.

Things looks ok, but to work well I would need it on all my devices which starts to get very expensive!
