Misc. Apps

• ToDo for iPad ($9.99):  Syncs with iCal’s Tasks (ToDos) via WiFi, but not with iCal’s Task alarms; can set alarms within ToDo, focus on specific todos, create checklist; this is the only todo app I have found that syncs with iCal’s Tasks and can set alarms for todos.
• The Early Edition ($4.99):  RSS feeds in newspaper format, This is my favorite RSS reader on my iPad.  Easy to add URLs for RSS feeds.
• NotifyMe 2 Simple ($2.99, iPhone version):  Set multiple alarms for classes, different sounds available, repeating alarms, and notes.
• Push My Reminders ($1.99) (and Lite version free):  Can set multiple reminders, really nice snooze button that you can quickly change for length of time (5-minute intervals).  I use this app as a timer to alert me to get up and walk around ever 15 to 20 minutes (I have a lower back injury).
