The new CNBC iPad app is one of the better financial news apps available and a big improvement over their iPhone app.

The app has news, streaming ticker, videos from both CNBC TV plus their web exclusive content, and stock quotes and news. There are even some technical chart settings worth taking a look at. The app is zippy and videos stream without pause. The content is updated frequently and always feels fresh. Finding the information you are interested in is easy with a well-designed layout in both portrait and landscape use.
One nice feature is video segments on stocks that you are following. So you can hear bull or bear arguments.

Hats off to a very nice job from the folks at CNBC.
