Ipod Touch

I am thinking about incorporating the Ipod touch into my classroom.  I teach grade 6 and am looking for help to decide which apps to use.  So, please give me some input as to what your favorite apps to use with middle school aged students are.  Thanks!

I teach American History to 8th graders and have been trying to find a solid basis on which to build a case for itouches in my classroom. Does anyone have any ideas of how they are using them in history classes?
