iPhones And iPads Are Fun, But They Can Be Productive Too

Your iPad and iPhone can do a lot of fun things.  But for many people that’s all it does… a lot of fun things.  But sometimes you need to get some work done while you’re on the go.  Here are a few great downloadable apps to make your iPad and iPhone a productive business tool:

Dropbox
Dropbox is a free service that lets you bring all your photos, docs, and videos anywhere.  After you install Dropbox on your computer, any file you save to your Dropbox will automatically save to all your computers, your iPhone and iPad.

Splashtop Remote Desktop
With Splashtop Remote you can go everywhere with your iPad and have full access to your PC or Mac.  This inexpensive app allows you to stream video and audio from your computer, allowing your interact with all of the functionality of a home computer or laptop.

Springpad
Springpad is another free service that lets you quickly and easily save the ideas and information you want to remember – on the web, on your phone and on your iPad.
When you want to remember something you come across, just save it in Springpad – notes, tasks, products, places, websites, anything.  This is a great tool for organizing and prioritizing. 

All of this of course is designed to get back to what’s really important – doing fun things – like playing Angry Birds!
