100 APPS RUNNERS UP<br />
All Categories<br />
WeatherStation Free (<strong>iPad</strong>)<br />
Some <strong>iPad</strong> users will use Apple’s built-in picture<br />
frame feature to display photos; others will<br />
see the 9.7” screen as a great place for stylish<br />
displays of information. Bigsool’s aptly-named<br />
WeatherStation Free turns the screen into a<br />
wide or portrait equivalent of a digital weather<br />
tool with the time and date at the top, and large<br />
weather and temperature indications in the center.<br />
With multiple color options for the screen and<br />
text, WeatherStation outperforms the dedicated<br />
standalone devices it emulates, and the price<br />
is right, too. We’d love to see its panels become<br />
buttons to lead to even more content. FREE<br />
Pulse<br />
As one of several nextgeneration<br />
<strong>iPad</strong> RSS news<br />
readers, Pulse presents<br />
feeds with as much photo<br />

StockWatch <strong>iPad</strong><br />
Like Apple’s Stocks app<br />
on steroids, StockWatch<br />
turns an <strong>iPad</strong> into a<br />
market monitor with as<br />
many companies and<br />
indices as you want. $6<br />
Sky+<br />
U.K.-only, this app offers<br />
