I’ve decided to devote a large portion of this edition to the best apps for the most popular mobile devices…namely iPad, iPhone, and Android smartphones and tablets (sorry Microsoft…your device apps are almost non-existent).
As a user of both mobile brands, I always look for the special apps that will be of help to me AND get rave reviews. And here they are…all in one place…waiting for your perusal. I’ve also made sure there a stories on the best free apps for both systems. You know me…I love free.
Also included is an article on the future of the iPad, and a comparison of the 3 best 7” tablets available now (and for your Christmas shopping pleasure). In addition, there are two reviews and two articles to help you get more out of your computers.
So, why don’t you stop listening to me and get started on your reading. -JRC
