CNN App for iPad: Free & Provides a Different Way to Look at News

CNN’s App for iPad launched this week and headed straight for #1 in the iTunes iPad App Store free apps list. The highly graphical grided app gives you the feeling of being in CNN’s news command center with up to 350 news stories in the grid. Each of the grid items has a photo (or video still) and a text caption to help you decide what to view. There’s also a slide show feature that lets you gesture your way through the top headlines.
