E-Trade Makes the Right Trade for iPad, Android Tablets of the Week
This week E*TRADE Mobile Pro for iPad tops our tablet business apps roundup, followed by four other iPad and Android apps. The application developed by E*Trade Securities, an online broker that provides investing and stock trading across a number of markets, and lets existing account holders trade from their mobile app.
The app, as noted above, offers fairly broad access to the securities’ firm trading platform, which allows users to trade stocks, options, mutual funds, ETFs, bonds, futures and more. It features live quote streaming with chart integration, CNBC video support, watch list syncing and more, along with some added security thanks to the fact personal data is not stored locally.
BlueMountain.com for iPad
BlueMountain.com introduced a free stationary app for iPad about a week ago, which allows users to create their own stationeries using several templates included inside. These can be customized with customer graphics and text, and shared, according to the company.
Bento is one of the more popular organizer apps out there for Apple’s tablet, and offers a host of features including Mac sync, 25 built-in database templates for task lists, projects and so on, as well as a number of other functions blended in into the native interface.
Android
Honey Comb eBusiness is a tablet-optimized business card maker that’s similar to BlueMountain.com’s offering: it allows users to customize built-in layouts with their company’s logo, text unique to each employee and so forth.
ThinkFree is a so called mobile office for Honeycomb, providing the ability to view, edit and share documents; sync to popular services such as Google Docs and carry out a very broad spectrum of other tasks within a UI designed to be similar to a desktop environment.
