iPhone Apps For Productivity

We try to be productive. We use our time wisely, our efforts appropriately, and our tools efficiently. One of the great things about iPhones is that they make a lot of this happen, anywhere we go.

Dumb Little Man (DML) has a great article on 12 iPhone Apps For Productivity. Since we're relatively new iPhone users here at CATCH, we were interested in what DML had to say. We ended up proud because we either use of have used 7 out of the 12 apps, so we can say that the list is good!
