I'm having fun with Carcassonne and Ticket to Ride.

Here's a screenshot of my boardgames folder that I took the other day (there are some in the background outside of the folder, too). They are all good quality apps, some are simply fantastic; it's really all dependent on your taste in boardgames.

I'm also missing a few games that I know of not pictured: 

* Army of Frogs - I have it on my phone, just haven't installed in on here
* Fits - I have it, just not pictured
* Blokus - just haven't bought it yet
* Cyclades - no AI and local 2 player only, therefore rated poorly, although it is expecting an update
* Imperial - just don't have much interest in this game, may look into it in the future though
* War of the Roses - I should buy this one now that I'm looking at this

And I use Game Table to play classic games around the iPad (no AI), like Backgammon, Go, and Chess.

Some games (in development or at least talked about) that I can remember at the moment on it's way to the iPad:

* Nightfall (submitted! will be out soon!)
* Dominion (official)
* Thunderstone
* Through the Ages
* Eclipse
* Troyes
* Dominant Species
* Summoner Wars

Just read a while back that Tasty Minstrel Games (Belfort, Eminent Domain, Jab, etc.) is starting iOS development soon; hopefully we'll get some good stuff from them, too.

Eminent Domain would be a good one to have.  I'm also going to get Tikal, Tigris and Euphrates, Puerto Rico and Catan eventually.  Maybe Titan.

Carcassonne isn't too hard to teach as long as you leave the field scoring out for the first couple of games.

Disc Drivin' is great too. Especially for gaming with the family.
