I use ezPDF for my PDFs. I think it's 2.99 in app store. Great program, I used it on my android and now on the iPad.

Dropbox is another highly recommended app... if you don't or can't open a pdf in the browser or import it via iTunes, you can put them all in dropbox on your PC, then anytime... connect to your free dropbox account and download what you want... not just pdf's but pictures, documents, other things.

BUT... dropbox has to be installed on PC too.

Just installed Dropbox too. Nice little app.

I'm really digging the Spashtop Remote. Now that is a really useful utility. Now I just need to hook up my webcam so I can turn on the video whenever I want and see what my 2 year old is up to at home. Maybe I should mount the camera in the eye of the teddy bear like Fokker's step-dad.. LOL..

* Received an iPad 3 for Father's Day about 5 hours ago and have already spent some money on apps. LOL..

So far:

Top Camera (HDR Photo app - I love HDR photos)
GoodReader (need something good to read those DCS PDFs) (I had EZPDF on my Android and liked it too..)
Splashtop

Free:

eTrade Mobile Pro
Kindle
Netflix
Dropbox


I'm looking at X-Plane (be nice if they could switch my license from the Android to iPad) and H-Elite. H-Elite says it doesn't quite work right with the latest iPad though..so I'll hold off.

Probably going to swallow the $79/year pill and buy Fore Flight. It is an app that downloads all of the terminal area charts, VFR charts, approach plates, etc..for flying. Our iPads in the airplane have the app installed, but it is good for personal reference at home.

As for games - I'd love to see something like Dangerous Waters or some other modern warfare application. I haven't looked much in the Apple store because I've always been an Android guy (HTC EVO phone).

Really nice stuff this iPad. I can see I'm going to like it a lot..
