So far, so good. The process basically works like a traditional highlighter. Every time I sync the Kindle app with Amazon’s server, my notes and highlights show up on all of my other devices too. I don’t have to lug multiple, heavy books around. I can just carry my ultralight laptop, my svelte iPad, or my pocket-size iPod Touch and have access to my reading and the accompanying highlights / notes.
As Will noted in his post, the beauty of all of this, however, is that Amazon also makes available a web site where you can see all of your Kindle notes and highlights. I can even see an aggregation of others’ highlights if I wish (which is pretty cool).

I have heard reports that consumer-grade hubs are not up to this kind of load long-term so we will see how that goes

I'm not happy with the way we're doing Secondary syncing and I'm starting to think that adopting the Primary sync model (every device on one library) would be of more benefit
-
When, I want to deploy a new app, I buy it on my master Mac mini. Each library is configured to pull new purchases from the mini using iTunes Home Sharing. This works but is imperfect, as Home Sharing only pulls new purchases and not updates

Gomeric Hill: My Latest Favorite Apps for iPhone - Part 2-Karen Montgomery - 0 views
-
As I continue to explore new apps on my iPhone, I am striving to post about two types of apps each time: a game or fun app and one that is educational or increases productivity in some fashion. Also, I plan to highlight one free and one purchased app each time.
-
Always great to find recommendations for iPhone apps from other educators. Liz Kolb mentioned Karen Montgomery in her recent radio show and Karen is sharing her favorites on her blog. Intrigued by Yummy which is a free bookmark manager that allows you to search Delicious and add/edit bookmarks from iPhone. Just wish it worked with Diigo too!

“We think there are many areas in special education where this kind of technology can be successful, but we need data to make good decisions.”

What of our tacit knowledge about learning, including that knowledge about the students? Is this no good? Can we not act upon what we know and not solely upon sterile data from a test?

Granted, the iPad has potential in school, but this article, among many others, is so vague at how the device is different other than the screen size and a mention of it's price tag. iPads seem to be going the way of the IWB. I still contend that these won't be successful until they are made personal. Meaning, give it to the kid to have for the entire year. Let them take it home, play with it, read on it, correspond on it and make their learning personal. I'm currently in a pilot with iPads and the students are lukewarm to the device because they know it will go away or that they won't be able to make it work for them personally.

I’ve seen my gifted kids get so frustrated (it shows them that they’re not always No. 1), and consequently, so proud of themselves because they’ve finally conquered it. The success is made much sweeter when you have to work for it.”

Nice round up of apps for the iPad. Adding Apple's own apps, however, is a bit useless to me, as a developer, since they're native and would, of course, work. I'm more interested in how third-party developers leverage the iOS.
