The application I am using the most on my iPad is EverNote. Very handy to take notes during meetings and sharing those with my other devices through the Cloud.With the Free version you can store all kinds of notes, eg cut and paste pieces of text from a webpage into a note. Everything you capture will be automatically processed, indexed and made searchable. If you prefer, you can add keywords or organize notes in different notebooks. You can also attach images, audio and PDF files to a note.
In the Premium version you are not limited to PDF, but you can attach all kinds of files to your notes. Also in the Premium version the notes database is stored locally on the iPhone and iPhone and you can work with EverNote without web access, very usefull on the airplane.
Recently, in possession of an iPad2. Is it just a bigger iPhone, which is not capabele of making phonecalls ? Well, because they both use the same iOS operating system, and because many applications suitable for both devices you would almost say yes.
But most apps have an ajusted user interface, using the bigger screen for the iPad. Therefore, they work slightly better than on the small screen of the iPhone.

Perhaps you have employees and/or projects that change frequently, but you want to provide desktop design applications to them without having to manage individual desktop installations or deployments on their hardware. I have heard this request all to often, especially from the larger organizations that have multiple locations and many users.
Autodesk applications with the Citrix-Ready Verified testing and support provide the confidence and the solution to allow applications to be installed, managed, shared data, and accessed from centralized servers. Think of it as building your own cloud of hosted applications within your own network.
