Units - TheMacBox
Units is a really useful app that lets you easily convert from various units into lots of others.
Units can convert Area, Currency, Energy, Temperature, Time, Length, Weight, Speed, Pressure, Power, Volume & Data Storage.
Units can even help you find out exactly how much data storage you really get when buying computer peripherals, by converting "Literal" Gigabytes (as used on store boxes) into real Gigabytes. (eg. a 16GB iPhone has 14.9 Gigabytes of actual storage!)
As an added bonus, Units also has a built in ruler, for doing small, quick measurements when the need arrises. TheMacBox 2008

From Patterson NY This may be one of the most underrated Apps out there. My review is a little long, but I think its worth a reading. This App is able to convert so many things such as Temperature, Weight, Speed, Energy, Pressure, Power, Volume, etc. If you find that confusing, allow me to give an example. My wife makes soap, and she needs to be able to convert from pounds into grams, etc. (She buys the ingredients in bulk.) I think she will find the Weight Conversion feature very helpful. But my personal favorite is the Currency converter. I suspect this is the most practical feature for most people. If you travel internationally, you may want to give this App serious consideration. There are some 35 different currencies from around the world which are built into the App. So if you need to convert, for example, American dollars into Euros, you can do that instantly. How about into Japanese Yen or British Pounds? Yep, its there. In fact, they are all displayed simultaneously! Couldn't be any easier. Also, you can customize which currencies you want to have displayed. I only wish I had this App when I traveled throughout the Mediterranean. Not every country was on the Euro, so I had to do the conversions myself. These are just my two cents. I hope this review is helpful.

Very Cool, UI could be nicer Very cool app. I like that it seems to be accurate -- at least it got the conversions that I know right :-) The UI could be fancier but.... what the heck.... it works! I also love the ruler :-) iPhones are so great. I can't wait until we are somewhere and somebody needs a quick measurement or a quick conversion! And they say the iPhone isn't a true SmartPhone! Ha! It's a GeniusPhone! :-)

Great App This is an easy to use and very helpful app. I do think it would look better if it had an icon next to each label, but that's because i'm really into the aesthetics of things. Great job though on this app!

Works great, weak aesthetics The program is really sweet. Very easy to use. But the graphics are not impressive. 4 stars because I think presentation is just as important as preparation.

Works, free, what's not to like? I have no idea why people are slamming this app. I like the fact that you can enter a unit in any box and the others sync with the proper conversion -- seems like an easy UI to me. Good work!

Very handy Just one small gripe; could you please make a sexier looking icon? It isn't much but it is kind of an eyesore compared to the others.
Otherwise, kickass app. And for $0, you can't go wrong.

Like it very much Simple interface is great. Don't cheese it up and slow it down with graphics, it's a tool, not a video game. Love that it's free. There is some wierdness with the kPa entry tho

VERY COOL! Works like a charm, excellent idea with the ruler!Now, on my wish list, more engineering type of conversions (thermal conductivity, etc...) and more tick marks on the ruler (and make its background yellowish, that would look nice). Awesome job guys!

Useful! This is a pretty nice, free, "conversions" utility. It seems reasonably well designed and it allows conversion among many different formats. The currency conversion option is great, but it would be nice if it had a larger selection of currencies to choose from. Very useful free application.

Pressure conversions has a bug! This app doesn't convert kilopascals correctly...hard to trust the other conversions with such a glaring bug.
