CNBC released a brand new iPad app late Monday, delivering the first truly useful, real-time market updates dashboard for the device.
The free app is cleverly organized for quick access to the latest information on the markets, including real-time stock quotes and charts from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and NASDAQ, as well as articles and videos from CNBC.com. Users can customize the dashboard to keep track of their individual portfolios and save articles (although not videos) for later offline viewing. A news ticker (which can be customized to track certain industries or personal portfolios) runs along the bottom of the app, making it easy to catch relevant breaking news as users navigate through the different sections.
Users can also watch highlights from CNBC’s more popular shows, including Mad Money and Fast Money.
It makes Fox Business’s [iTunes link] and Bloomberg’s [iTunes link] iPad apps, which have a 15-minute reporting delay on stock quotes, look primitive by comparison.
Only two things are lacking: streaming access to CNBC’s live TV content and better social integration. Admittedly, finance is not a popular topic of discussion on social networks currently; however, the growth of online social communities like Stocktwits may very well reverse this trend. We’d love to see sharing options for class='blippr-nobr'>Facebookclass="blippr-nobr">Facebook and class='blippr-nobr'>Twitterclass="blippr-nobr">Twitter, live commenting functionality on videos and articles, as well as live, stock-related tweets from Stocktwits’s API.

And, hey, the only other things to be accomplished in the next two weeks are debt-spending resolutions and repeal of "don't ask, don't tell" and passing the Dream Act and ratifying the START treaty and wrangling President Obama's tax cut deal.
The Republicans' Mighty Mitch McConnell (see smiling photo, left) has successfully gotten congressional Democrats carping at Obama over giving the GOP an extension of all Bush tax cuts and a lower Social Security payroll tax and estate tax changes and business investment tax incentives in return for less than five dozen more weeks of unemployment insurance.
Such a deal, eh?
Well, truth is, as Obama reluctantly realized, it's a better deal for him now than next month when the newly Republicanized House would vote to extend the tax cuts anyway and Obama wouldn't get anything, including credit, for having to sign such a popular measure.
A new Gallup Poll out this morning finds the extensions of tax cuts and unemployment benefits are particularly popular among Americans, two out of three, in fact.
So, look at that: It seems the Republicans and Obama are together in sync with the American public. That must really annoy the other folks.
And since Obama wants this stealth stimulus plan so badly to possibly salvage his 2012 reelection, and since he pretty much left Harry and Nancy out of the December weekend deal-making, the Nevada senator figures to slip online poker into the much-coveted tax cut bill for a free ride during the ensuing hubub. Voila!
Will this Reid insert ignite more cramming in of pet projects that overload the bill with miscellaneous irrelevancies, stalling the all-important tax cut extension before the Jan. 1 deadline?
Republicans say online poker has zero chance.
But here's the beauty in wily Harry's cards: Even if he's bluffing with this hand, the Nevadan can't lose. Just attempting passage of online poker now earns him chips back home in Vegas, baby.
