Education Applications for iPhone and Mobile Devices

Today, I received a request for a list of the top education apps for iPhones. Talk about tech trends -- last year's explosion of mobile apps will be nothing compared with this year's. iPhone started it all -- today, there are 100,000 iPhone apps. Other mobile devices (Blackberries, Palms, smartphones, netbooks, etc) also have mobile apps.

To some extent, I have covered library/educational mobile apps on 2CoolTools. See
- top 10 list of categories of mobile applications
- Mobile Learning
- API - applications for libraries
- Mobile devices

I didn't have a specific list of most popular education apps, but the question made me look and find some sites that review education apps:

• http://www.iear.org/iear/author/iear
• http://iphone-apps.toptenreviews.com/education/
• http://www.eduinreview.com/blog/2009/05/8-must-have-education-apps-for-iphone/
