Work Related iPhone Apps

As promised here is my review of some of the work related iPhone applications I've tried since I got my phone in December.

I haven't found many applications that are directly related to technical writing or training development. Though I have found some applications that help me at work.

MyToDo—I am a list maker and I keep a running To Do list at work as a way to help me remember where I'm at with my projects. The MyToDo application gives me a place to input the items I need to get done and organize them into different lists. It lets me keep the things I need to do for church separate from the things I need to do for work and so on. This is also great for those work items that I remember I need to do when I'm at home and away from my paper list.

Dragon Dictation—I'm still experimenting with this application, but I am excited about the idea. This application allows you to use your iPhone as a dictation machine. The speech recognition takes some time to get used to your voice, but this is great for the notes and such that you need to keep and don't have time to type them up. The only downside to this application is that it does not save the text for you. You have to copy and paste it into a note or other application.

So, there you go, the work related applications that I like. What do you think? Are their any others that you use?
