Taking notes on the iPad
0Using the iPad to do work is my favorite topic right now and taking notes with it is made a lot easier with a few apps!
This one is great if you are only concerned with writing on the iPad
This is a wonderful all around app for notes, pictures, writing and typing on the iPad. Right now it’s 3.99 but it goes on sale frequently, last week it was .99 There is a Paper Desk Light version that’s free and it can give you an idea of how well this might work for you.
I don’t have much experience with this one but it’s only .99 cents this week…it looks very comparable to Paper Desk but I don’t know. It has really good ratings and I’ve already purchased this, but I have not used it enough yet.
