I need:

Good Printing app (directly to IP printer.) - ???
A good MSN Messenger app - tried IM+, doesn't see all my contacts. - ???
Good RDP app - bought Splashtop
A good screen sharing app - bought Air Display.
A good video streaming app - something I can use over 3G, if possible - bought Air Video
Native Google Voice app - Using iPhone-Native GV app.


Thanks, I know it's a lot to ask, but reviews all seem biased one way or another. I am hoping to find apps based on what people like.

out of those i only have 1 for you...

i use mapquest app for GPS when driving. it is free and has voice assisted directions.

when i'm in my car I have my phone connected to my stereo most of hte time, and it's nice to be able to just hear what i have to do next over my speakers.

Is Mapquest native to iPad now? I used it for a little while on my iPhone. I am being a snob, I don't want any non-native apps. :)

Native GPS app: if you don't require voice navigation, the native Maps app can display your position on a map and give you directions. Otherwise, Mapquest as stated.
