This looks like a really useful app. Free and when paired with its other free companion with a similar name, you'll have much better understanding and control of your data usage...and maybe save some money on the process.

"Khan Academy, the wildly popular Youtube lecture series, is slated to launch its iPad app any minute now in Apple's store. The enhanced version of Khan Academy will include time-syncing between devices--no Internet connection required, an interactive transcript of the lectures for easy searching, and a handy scrubber for moving between parts of the lectures. Perhaps more importantly, now that more schools have begun adopting Khan's lectures for their own classrooms, the free iPad app could possibly replace or supplement textbooks, saving cash-strapped schools and students a lot of money."

"Taking notes on the iPad is a great way to save on the amount of physical paper you have floating around and a much easier way to stay organized.

That's right, Walmart is offering a $100 iTunes gift card for only $80."
