PBS for iPad - Education App

By PBS


Greg's Review:
If you like educational programing this is the app for you. This app contains clips and full length episodes from many PBS series including: American Experience (my favorite), Antiques Roadshow, Frontline, Masterpiece Theater, Nova, and Nature. They also have some great documentary series such as: Carrier (life on an aircraft carrier), Circus (life working for the circus), and Prohibition (the latest project by Ken Burns). It also has a search engine to find local PBS stations.  There is a great deal of content here especially when you consider that the app is free.
