Two days ago we previewed DashApp for iPad, an upcoming application that should enable you to view multiple websites at once, as if they’re widgets. Turns out there’s a similar application already approved by Apple, it’s called “Sites” and it’s got a lot of features that could make it the worst enemy of DashApp.

Weather HD for iPad: Stunning
So we haven’t got a weather widget on the iPad. Fine, I guess it’s just up to 3rd party developers to come up with their solutions to let users check the weather on their iPads, and Weather HD from Vimov takes a complete new approach, which may appeal a lot of people.

Preview: Wikipanion Plus for iPad, Available at Launch
Together with Articles from Sophiestication, Wikipanion is one of the most popular and downloaded Wikipedia apps for iPhone, and you’ll be able to have it on your iPad in just 2 days.

USA TODAY for iPad: Looking Good
It showed up in the App Store a few minutes ago and in my opinion (from what I can see) it’s one of the most feature rich newspapers applications for the iPad. USA TODAY looks good and has a lot of functions, including offline reading and native photo galleries.
