Hi All,
Thanks Glenn! I just downloaded the brain anatomy app.  I thought it pricey but pretty darn cool. It would be nice to have more info available in the app.  The ease of navigation is very cool.  It's not possible to learn very much directly.  Overall, I felt a tad closer to Einstein, but I'm not sure it has increased my cognitive function.

Previously unpublished photographs of the brain of physicist Albert Einstein, taken shortly after his death, have now been analyzed and show that his brain was unlike the average brain in many ways. A new iPad app allows anyone to download copies of these photographs.
