Gravitational Pull has a mini-review of Shakespeare Pro for the iPad. The author loves it:
There are already a lot of very nifty iPad apps, from Entertainment Weekly’s cool, interactive “Must List” to the show-me-the-radar greatness of Weatherbug to Amazon’s simple yet invaluable Kindle app. But so far, only one app has blown my mind: Shakespeare Pro. It cost $19.99 but it’s probably worth $199.99 if you a big fan of the bard.
Take a look if you are into Shakespeare.
The free version doesn’t have as many features (just the plays and the concordance) but it’s a nice start if all you want to do is read the plays (and weighs a lot less than the pbook equivalent I have :-)).
And there’s an ‘In App’ upgrade to the pro version if the free version doesn’t have enough features.
Now, if only I could find an iPad version of the complete Sherlock Holmes in the same kind of format…
The folks behind the Shakespeare app at Readdle already have free apps for Plato and Aristotle. Perhaps we should start sending them more suggestions such as Sherlock Holmes!
