The pick: five business iPad apps

The WebEx iPad app allows mobile workers to participate in online meetings via Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and share information in real time when they are out and about. They can also conduct online chat discussions during the webinars, according to the description on the Apple App Store.

The software integrates with both Google Docs

Since the software integrates with both Google Docs and Apple's MobileMe iDisk — Apple's cloud service that helps sync emails, contact details and calendars — users' data is accessible from anywhere with an internet connection.
