Capsuleer
Capsuleer is a great skill monitoring application for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
With their recent 2.0 update, I decided it was due time to give it a review!
Style
This app really has the looks to stun. The images, icons, and even font styles are pretty much inline with EVE and is manipulated to suit the interface well.
Headlines
In the application there are several other apps. The headlines is a RSS feed with Capsuleer announcements, CCP feeds, and the entire EVE Blog Pack!
You can even read my blog with it, awesome! Pictures, styling, and all of that good stuff come through and are resized to fit. But in order to see an image at its actual size, it needs to be opened in Safari. As each article is read, the reader automatically marks them as read.
How It Works
The main purpose of Capsuleer is for monitoring my skill queue and wallet on the go, so I imported my character information into Capsuleer. It was quite simple!
It can display many pilots. As long as you have the API information they can be all added into Capsuleer.
Under each character, I can view its skill queue, information on the current skill, attributes, pilot background, and all of the skills that character knows!
Server Status
In addition to all that, Capsuleer also monitors the server status of both Tranquility and Singularity!

Summary
This app is a must have for EVE players that own an iPhone or iPod Touch. It looks great and works great.
I wish they can implement some things like corporation information, transactions, POS statuses, and possibly an item database, but for now this will satisfy me! I know the guys are keeping speed and performance number one, so no pressure.
The number of people using this is staggering, over 10,000 installs, and I thought about buying an advert on it. After looking at the price though, I think I’ll hold off on that one for now!
Looks great guys, and I am sure when the 3.0 firmware comes out you guys will be improving this ten fold!

It’s times like these that I really wish I had an iPhone.
Anyone want to get me one? :P
Thanks for the fantastic review. I’m going to link this review on our forums at http://capsuleer.evesuite.com
It’s how I found your blog. Awesome app, awesome blog!
@Godlesswanderer
It really is a helpful tool. Get an iPod Touch, they are nice too and a lot cheaper!
@Roc Wieler
Thank you and PJSam for the fantastic app! Keep it up!

Glad I could find another reader, feel free to comment when you find something interesting.
I love the app as well very very useful! As for tracking POS modules the guy over at DOTALN maps has been testing a POS tracking information addon, maybe that will help http://evemaps.dotlan.net/

DOTLAN is great, but I meant POS tracking as on the iPhone/iPod touch.
Some sites are very clunky when it is viewed on such a small screen, that is why Capsuleer was so well designed to suit the interface!
