I just broke down and got myself an iPad in order to test and model some new systems for work. (Yep twisted my arm). So what are the absolute must have, most useful apps to get for an iPad?

There's some delight in ale and wine,
And some in girls with ankles fine,
But my delight, yes, always mine,
Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

Just in time for the iPad 3 with the retina display to come out in 3 weeks.

WOOT!

I thought the spies are reporting that the next big thing in 3 weeks will be a half sized iPad (so a really fancy Nook Color/Kindle Fire), and the iPad 3 won't appear until late spring at best?

Thanks for the suggestions. I will need to grab some of them

Most reputable sites are saying the iPad 3 announcement comes the first week of March and they go on sale the following week. Rumors still maintain the same form factor, maybe a touch thicker to accommodate a larger battery. The battery is supposed to be supporting a possible Quad-Core chip along with the new HD screen and 4G LTE. That will be a beast of a tablet if it all proves true.

As for must have apps, the 2 I use most often are Drop Box and TeamViewer.
