100,000 apps available

Yesterday, Apple announced that there are now over 100,000 apps in the app store
and “well over” two billion iPhone apps have been downloaded, an increase from September 28, 2009 when Apple announced 85,000 apps available and “more than” two billion apps downloaded.  A little history to put this in perspective:

And because a picture is worth a thousand words:


What apps do you use the most?  Here are some of the apps that I have been using lately, along with a brief description for the ones that I have not reviewed on iPhone J.D.

  1. DocScanner. Take a picture and convert to PDF. Sometimes opposing counsel at a conference or informal meeting will show me a document that they “promise to send me as soon as they get back in the office”. No need. I take a picture with DocScanner and I have it whether they send it to me or not.
    ReQall. A great one-two punch with NotifyMe.
