iA Writer
A word processor that's been pared right down, iA Writer isn't the app you'll be bashing out the company report with. There's no formatting control at all. Instead, iA Writer forces you to concentrate on the writing, with Focus Mode even limiting the view to the current sentence. A host of clever keyboard shortcuts makes it ideal for writing considered pieces of text.
Omnifocus for iPad
OmniFocus won't be for everyone: it's an app for people with complex workloads, for whom a simple to-do list just isn't enough. You may also need to start thinking the way OmniFocus thinks. For example, it uses the term "contexts'* to describe different scenarios such as being in the office, at home, or being with your boss. Tasks are assigned to that context, and you can then see what needs to be done next when you're in that situation. There are many more strings to its bow: the forecast feature, showing what you need to do today, this week and in the future, is just one. If its structured way of working suits you, you'll find OmniFocus well worth the high price.
iANNOTATE PDF
This fabulously powerful app allows you to highlight, mark up, comment and scribble all over PDFs. saving the need to print out and scribble down notes in pen. It's particularly suited for working on the train or in the back of a car, with bumps no longer threatening to ruin a document with shakily inked annotations, especially when used with a decent stylus. The developers are constantly adding features, and the most recent upgrade has simplified the toolbars and made performance even smoother. Options to seamlessly synchronize documents with Dropbox, or email annotated files to colleagues, add the final touches to a splendid app.
AirDisplay
A simple app that provides a very impressive bit of functionality -AirDisplay turns your iPad into a second monitor for your Mac or PC. You'll need to install a small piece of software on your desktop or laptop {the app itself directs you on where to go to do this) after which you'll be able to pair the two over Wi-Fi. You can rotate the iPad from portrait to landscape as you choose. All in all, a great way to incorporate a tablet into your working life.

Don't post rude or nasty comments. Ethnic slurs, personal insults and abuses are rather uncool. Criticize, but know where to draw the line.
