Cartographer is a mapping program for the iPad that allows for downloading of maps to your computer for printing or Virtual Table Top use.
At 12 bucks it's 18 dollars cheaper then it's only competitor I know of (whose name escapes me at the moment).
The mapping is fairly intuitive... It took me about 10 minutes to figure out how to do a small 4 room dungeon complete with doors, stairs, pools and assorted trappings.
You can also use the map as a battle map directly on the iPad, and can move counters around on the virtual screen. A bit small for my use, but with a video out to a HD TV or computer monitor it might make a decent option
I only stumbled across this little gem late last night, so I haven't put it thru all of it's paces. My one peeve is that the zoom is not set to work with the ipad's pinching feature... Instead it uses preset zoom out /in settings.
Interesting so far, this might become a mapping program I can actually use ;)
