Apple Thoughts: Back to School With The iPhone

"Not everything in Apple's iPhone App Store is fun and games: And now that it's back-to-school time, students should check out some of the handy educational tools and reference guides in the App Store."

I wish the iPhone was around when I was in school as they really have some good educationally oriented apps. In honor of back to school week here is a list of 10 of them, well actually 9 since they throw in a game for fun, and they range in price from free to $2.99 USD (5 of them are in fact free). Several of them my daughter is already using (MyHomework, AlgebraPrep, Convert and Dictionary.com) so she was well on her way, but she may add a couple more after reading this article. I myself have found Convert very useful, as well as Dictionary.com, so there is something for just about everyone in this list, not just students.
