As Apple says, there are apps for just about anything – including a suite for the decerning entrepreneur on the go. Thankfully, Inc.com has listed some of the most recent business tools to hit your phone – allbeit in American money.

Did you know, for example, that apps exist that let you do the following?

Convert your mobile phone into a fully fledged Tom Tom (so you can find out how to get somewhere) Log in to your own desktop, giving you access email, Word documents and even accounting software Create expense reports, build task lists or track things like sales leads and vehicle maintenance reports Scan incoming e-mails for contact info, then imports the data automatically into your phone's address book

If not, then take a closer look at your Blackberry, iPhone or Palm Pre.
