Your favorite iPad app

If you had to recommend only one iPad app to a friend, family member of colleague at work, which one would it be and why?
My favorite app, so far, is Nasdaq OMX's Qfolio HD app. (There's one for the iPhone, but it is poor and very basic and not worth the time to download.) If you like tracking stocks and following the market, this Qfolio HD is informative and fun to watch. You can set up a portfolio and watch lists and see the stocks updated and trades being made.
Upsides are:
+ Screens well laid out (beautiful screens)
+ Easy to add and remove items from the portfolio and watch list
+ Lots of good information on each screen
+ Fast real-time updating on a good connection
+ Free
Some downsides to the app are:
* You cannot add funds to the portfolio or watch list
* Missing the DJIA and S&P ticker information.
* Limited to one portfolio and one watch list
* You cannot re-sort items in the portfolio or watch list (at least I can't find a way to do it). A real pain if you want to keep one stock (or group of stocks) at the top of the list as you add and delete stocks.
CNBC has a good app for the iPhone (CNBC RT) complete with alerts, but they have not ported it so it can take advantage of the iPad.
I was wondering what other favorite apps are out there for the iPad.

What's your favorite iPad app?

I'm just wondering what your favorite iPad app and why? I don't have a favorite yet because I haven't got my iPad yet! I have downloaded tons of apps so I will add my favorite as soon as I know. I would love to hear from others what their favorite app is and "why" is optional.

i can't decide between these three:
_*iTeleport for iPad*_, because it lets me remote control any of my Macs from anywhere in the house.
StreamToMe, because i can watch my movies and tv shows anywhere in the house.
eyeTV, because it lets me watch tv anywhere in the house.

What's your favorite FREE app?

So far, I've only downloaded free apps, and those which were the most highly-rated. Here's my casual "top 10" listing ... there are SO many good ones, but I really love the first three. I was blown away by ABC Player the first time I booted it up ... it's gorgeous! These apps really make the iPad standout ... I'd rather use these apps more than those on my desktop because they're so much "prettier"!
1) ABC Player
2) Yahoo! Entertainment
3) USA Today
4) NPR (National Public Radio)
5) eBay
6) WeatherBug
7) Kindle for iPad
8) IMDb
9) Kayak
10) Marvel Comics

Wanted to tell you about a great FREE sticky notes app I found yesterday morning. It's called ABCNotes. I'm a notes app junkie and it seems like I've bought most of the notes and sticky notes apps in the App Store over the last 2 years. But this is the best little sticky notes I've found. Don't know how long it will be FREE but I highly recommend it. Do yourself a favor and check it out.
I agree on most of the same free apps you've listed, especiallyWeatherBug, Kindle and NetFlix. (Oops, NetFlix was not on your list, but on the list of the other poster.)

Your favorite/best apps

Well i got i3 all setup and looking how i want it and now comes the time for me to start installing apps that i need. iv already installed ranger as a file manager (Great job devs!!!!), mplayer as a video player (havent tested yet), chromium as a browser, feh for background (and maybe image manager), and i think thats it. Iv read the best app thread and i went through and picked some from there but i mean for like anything here, like maybe you have a program that you love as a sys tray or dropbox as cloud storage, just stuff like that.So if you could please post the name of the app, a blurb about what it does and if you want the website if you know it off the top of your head (i can google if you cant remember)
Thanks in advance!

There are already a number of threads here regarding applications and a couple of pages on the wiki.

What are your favorite backup apps?

I am looking for a simple to use backup app. I have never used a backup app with windows or Mac's before so just looking for something simple and effective. I have looked around and saw that Intego had one backup program but they mostly have security apps. So I did not know if it was worth it. Thanks for the feedback in advance! Oh, just so you know I do not have a external harddrive right now and was wondering how safe it really is using programs that upload to the net.

I have read many reviews on exteral harddrives and I think I found one. Does anyone have any feedback, or what do you think?

What's your favorite web app?

I'm looking for good web apps to put on my home screen.

If you are in Boston, Cambridge, New York or San Francisco you might find http://i.zami.com handy. It's an irreverent Yellow Pages by and for iPhone users with a novel way of listings stores by street. Also a nifty directory of the recent Macworld Expo.

Your favorite Flash based apps ?

I'm writing an article on the unexpected and underestimated power of using Flash to develop apps for the iPhone/iPad. It seems that most developers and designers are still under the "No Flash" mantra of Steve Jobs. However, it is hard to find good examples of Flash based apps, since they're simply not promoted as such in the App Store. It also seems that the number of available Flash based apps is not that impressive, judging by the (lack of) developers talking about it on the web or in forums. I just find stumble upon stale pages on the old debate or even older pre-CS5 techniques...
There used to be this list:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashcs5/appsfor_iphone/
But it refers to the new Packager, now.
So, who can help me out ?
What's your favorite Flash app for iOS ?
Are there any lists or spots where they all flock together ?
UPDATE: Oops, I didn't scroll deep enough in the topic list to find out there's already another thread that touts examples of Flash based apps. However, your suggestions are welcome, of course !

I've been having the same problem and was just able to solve it on my own using Verizon's in-Home agent. Here's how I did it.
The Problem
When attempting to connect to the Cable Box using the Verizon iPhone or iPad apps, you get the message "Network connction to FIOS services timed out (201)" or something similar. Everything works except for this: Your TV, your Internet, you Wifi network.
The Solution
From your desktop browser, go to http://www.verizon.com/inhomeagent, then download and install the in-Home agent application.
Launch in in-Home Agent App, click on "Quick Fixes", and then click on "Troubleshooting TV Issues"
Click through until you're prompted to select the Set Top Box (STB) you're trying to connect to. Then click "Next."
The agent will "send commands" to your STB. When it's done, turn on your STB (if it's not already on) and your TV. In my case, it said it was downloading and to wait a minute. Then my picture came back. This step may not be necessary to fix the problem, but it's what I did before attempting to use the iPhone/iPad apps.
Try accessing again using your iPhone/iPad app(s). If you're already connected, just use the refresh (circling arrow) button to check it out.
This worked for me. Let us know if it works for you.
Good luck.

Hi,
Sounds like it isn't to serious. the Bluetooth connection had an error and that is that generated
the Problem report.
When the Blackberry started to use Bluetooth the "gold standard" was using Microsoft's
"native" windows drivers. Now, every major PC company has there own version
Thus the problem report.
There is rather involved and lengthy procedure to check and install the correct Bluetooth drivers
in the Dell, but I really don't think you want to take that on.( Nod you head and say H*LL YES)
Here is what I propose;
The problem report needs to be resolved or it wont go away. Read the manual, call Dell,
try apologizing to it and that you'll never never do it again, what ever it takes!
Make the best investment you can make for your Blackberry, buy a media card.
All the memory in the BB is dynamic, this facilitates the functions of the phone.
By storing media in that memory, you effect are wasting X amount for file storage.
Store all media and files on the media card, and you will have a smooth running device.
They run about $25.00usd, they are easy to install, and they also make moving your
media a snap. You will need the USB adapter that came with it, but you can get that at
your local carrier store.
So if you agree with this I need some info.
On the Blackberry go to the options icon,click then scroll up to ABOUT.
I need your software version number, it's listed in this format: 4.x.x.xxx.
Send it back to me and I can tell you what size card you can get.
Let me know your thoughts!
Thanks,
Bifocals

How do I access Your Music on the iPad app?

I mostly listen to albums, not playlists.
I used to keep all my saved albums on Spotify as playlists - but following the update I re-saved them all as saved albums under 'Your Music' (on the new desktop app for OS X) and deleted my old playlists (assuming I wouldn't need them anymore).
This was fine on my iPhone as now I can access my saved albums under the 'Your Music' However, I then tried this on my iPad and couldn't find a way to access 'Your Music' at all?

What is your favorite note taking app for handwriting to text?

What is your favorite note taking app for handwriting to text?

I use WritePad - feel it does a good job. However, I must admit that I didn't try any others... at the time, it had the best reviews of any handwriting recognition app (in fact, as I recall, it might have been the only one to do recognition).
