Apple has the most robust app market of anyone making a tablet computer.
It's great for people that buy iPads, but it's also daunting. How do you sift through more than 108,000 applications developers have built?
This is how! We've put together our list of the best apps to download when you first get an iPad.
Not all of these are best of the best, but we think these are coolest starting apps to show off all the things you can do with the iPad.
That way when your friends come over and ask what's so great about the iPad you can show them.
The Kindle app is a must.
Apple will shove iBooks down your throat, but it's okay to skip it at first. If you're going to download an app for reading books, get the Kindle app. It has a bigger selection of books, for now. Really, it's not a bad idea to get both, but if you have to pick one, go with Kindle.
We really like the Epicurious application
Using the iPad as a cookbook is awesome. It's one of the best uses of the device out there. We've used Epicurious to find recipes based on whatever we had in our refrigerator.
If you have Netflix, you definitely want to get the Netflix app
Netflix's iPad app is great implementation of its streaming service. We highly recommended it, provided you have a Netflix subscription. Otherwise, it's useless.
If you don't have Netflix, we recommend the ABC player app. It has a lot of ABC shows for free.
