Was browsing the new Apple App Store and saw this thing called "Brain App". Maybe that is what I need: a new brain. But it costs $4.99 and my present brain tells me to only go after free stuff.

Will the app make you thing that iPad is greatest thing EVAH and overlook that it's missing crucial components one need in a computer? will it make you camp before Apple stores to get your overpriced product before everybody else?

I don't have an iPad, but this app will work on my desktop Mac. It is supposed to be a "brain-training" app or educational app, so I guess it would not give me a new brain, which is what I think I need sometimes.

Says it is the #1 ranking educational game in the UK and Australia. I don't know who is doing the ranking!
