This book a reference guide to finding the best apps on the iPad.

Prices in this book may not be updated; promotions occur every day, and publishers are constantly adjusting prices. It is as accurate as possible.

This book is by no means complete; it currently has only five categories, but I'm working on expanding it to include all categories in the App store. There are over 1,500 apps in the iPad app store-it is my intention to get as me as possible quality ones in this book. This first edition includes over 200 in from the Books, Weather, Travel, Entertainment, and Games category.

For the most part, "Lite" apps are not included; whenever possible, I have tried to indicate if a free demo of the app is available.

This book isn't a review guide, and I do not weigh in my opinions of any of the apps-it's simply a guide to what apps are out there, so you don't have to spend hours in iTunes looking them over yourself.

The word giant in this title is a little misleading--it's big, but not as big as t will be.
