LogMeIn is an incredibly useful tool that allows you to access your computer remotely. With LogMeIn Ignition for the iPad, accessing your computer and data remotely is a breeze. I’ve been playing around with the app for a few days, so let’s get straight into the review!
Setting up LogMeIn Ignition is simple and easy. You need the application on your iPad (obviously), and you need the LogMeIn application installed on your computer. There’s two versions: LogMeIn Pro2 or LogMeIn Free (Mac or PC). After you download the app on your computer, you set up a LogMeIn account, and you’re done on the computer side. After that, you just log in with your account details in the Ignition app, and you’re set and ready to go!
Once you get everything set up and ready to go, you’re presented with your desktop…and a few options buttons: Show/Hide Keyboard, Cmd-Tab/Cmd-` command, mouse default left/right options, Zoom In/Out, Settings, and End Session.
As a followup to their iPad is Delicious and What is iPad commercials, Apple introduced a new iPad commercial last night.
The ad features the iPad in a variety of scenes, each captioned with text including “medical, live, musical, work, play, memories, social, magazines, and historic”
Welcome back to another edition of our "Once paid, now FREE" iPad app roundup. These iPad apps once cost money to purchase, but now they’re free for the taking! Please note that some apps may only be free for a short time.
The Apple iPad truly is a magical device, and definitely entertaining if you want to surf the web, play games, read books, or watch movies and TV shows. But sometimes you need to get some work done and you probably have a task list or a "honey do" list that you need to track. Wouldn’t it be nice if your iPad could also keep you organized and on task so that you can get your work done quickly and get back to the fun stuff? With the right task management app, it can do exactly that.
Agendus ($9.99)
Agendus is the first of two "all in one" iPad apps that manage both your calendar and your tasks. Agendus goes one step further and also integrates your contacts. The Today view is clean and uncluttered, reminiscent of a paper calendar, and I like having the weather forecast, quote of the day, and "this day in history" included. The calendar view includes events and tasks on the right side, and the contacts portion of the app is fully searchable. Tasks are rather simple at this point; you can link them to contacts and create repeating tasks, but you can’t have projects or subtasks at this point.

As first reported by Mac4Ever, VLC has been ported to the iPad by Applidium with the blessing of the VideoLan team. The app is currently in submission with Apple and is awaiting approval.
After several month of porting, we are proud to announce the release of VLC for the iPad! This application stands out for two reasons. First, it will be available for free on the AppStore. But thats not all. VLC is an OpenSource project. We are currently preparing our patches for submission to the main VLC tree. And obviously, we will release our current working tree when the app will hit the AppStore. If everything goes well, VLC for the iPad should be available next week.
IFA 2010: External hard drive ends storage problems for Apple tablet
The company behind the popular external battery packs for the MacBooks, HyperMac, has launched a new external gadget for the iPad.
But rather than just a battery, or a keyboard, the HyperDrive is an iPad hard drive offering your Apple tablet a further 750GB of storage on the go and way beyond the top of the range 64GB model currently available.
The external drive, which comes with it’s own 3.2-inch colour display, d-pad and menu buttons takes a standard hard drive and then lets you transfer videos and image files to the iPad with the help of the official Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit and the iPad’s photo importer app.
