Rating: 8 out of 10Pros: Multiple notebooks, can email single page or entire notebook, wrist protection to eliminate unwanted marks.Cons: A bit strange to use your finger to write and stay neat, only 1 color ink, a bit pricey.Overall: Penultimate is a ever growing and expanding app that has great functionality and potential. It works quite well but the thing I found difficult, and maybe its just my sausage fingers, is that I could not get much information on one page. I would also like to see more than 3 styles of paper and one ink color. That being said this developer listens to what customers want and implements then extremely fast. I honestly can’t wait to see where the developer takes this app. You can learn more about Penultimate by visiting the developers website by clicking here as well as purchase the app in the app store for $2.99 by clicking here and being directed to the app store page.

Here’s another app that I discovered at iPadDevCamp in San Jose this weekend; Tilt HD is an app designed for iPAd and is totally addicting. I will let the interview do most of the talking but the points that really hit home for me are that Nicole Lazarro and her team at XEODesign have been working on this app for about 2 years and have written over 500 pages of code. So if you think it’s easy to put together great games with great graphics think again. You can purchase Tilt HD for the iPad for $4.99 in the app store by clicking here and keep in mind the iPhone version will be available soon. Keep an eye out for my full review of Tilt HD. Read More
