Like you, I bought the "New iPad" as my first venture into iDom. As far as apps, I have the usual fair - FaceTweet, Pandora, Skype, etc. I loaded Splashtop to control my home PC remotely (which is pretty cool, but takes practice), and DISH remote access for my satellite. All the comforts of home while on the road (which was my hope.) The app that gets the most screen time is the Alarm Clock from The Alarm Clock Company. Not only can I program it to only go off on weekdays, but I can tell it what song to play (something very soft) and how loud (again, very soft.) It streams my Facebook and Twitter as well as displaying the local weather. It has a ton of other options I don't need/use.

I'm a big gamer too - got Mahjong and Solitaire!!
