LogMeIn Ignition is one of the most useful apps on my iPhone and iPad. The app allows you to access your computer (either Mac or PC) when you are away from your home or office. I find the iPhone app useful when I am on the go and need to quickly grab a file from my desktop or quickly access some function on my PC that I cannot accomplish in a native iPhone app. On my iPad, I make extensive use of LogMeIn when I am travelling. My most recent review of the app is here, and even more features have been added since I wrote that review nine months ago including a great option that lets you view a list of files on a remote computer and download a specific file. With LogMeIn Ignition, I can use my iPad, usually paired with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard, to access my work computer even when I am away from the office and get virtually anything done that I could do if I was in front of the actual computer. It is one of the key reasons that I can travel with just an iPad and keyboard and never miss leaving my computer in my office.
The LogMeIn Ignition app usually sells for $30, but every once in a while the price is reduced to $20. I bought my copy during a $20 sale back in 2009. But right now the company is running a "back to school" 50% off sale, which means that the app is only $15. This is the lowest price that I have ever seen for this app. If you don't own the app already, I strongly urge you to consider picking it up right now when you can do so for such a low price. It is a universal app so you can buy it once and use it on both an iPhone and an iPad.
Thanks to California attorney David Sparks (of MacSparky and the Mac Power Users podcast) for alerting me to this price drop.
