Every day new apps arrive in the App Store, so the possibilities for your iPad continue to grow. If you still can't find an app that does what you need, you can always learn to program, create, and possibly make money distributing your own app for others to download and enjoy.

The key to the iPad's versatility is its software. No matter how old your iPad may get, it need never become obsolete as long as you can keep loading it up with apps that let you use with your iPad in new and unexpected ways. Put your most crucial apps on your main Home screen, put the apps that your children play on a different pane, and put your own entertainment apps on yet another screen.

Now with the swipe of your finger, you can convert your iPad into a business productivity tool, an entertainment center, a children's play toy, or anything else you want. All you need are the right apps.
