PhatWare has released version 3.0 of PhatPad for iPad, a note-taking and collaboration app featuring upgraded handwriting recognition technology. PhatPad allows users to draw, write and type on an iPad, then share notes via PDF, e-mail, WiFi sync, Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, SkyDrive, Evernote or in the app's presentation mode.
