iPad-only apps

What are the best or most notable iOS apps and games that are only available on iPad, and not on iPhone?
The trend seems to be an "HD" version of apps for the iPad (specifically games -- I have two versions of every Angry Birds iteration on my iPad because the kids want both). They're essentially the same, but with better detail and occasionally some gameplay differences.
(Also, I disagree with ignignokt that Ascension is less playable on the iPhone, especially once you pretty much know all the cards.)

I'm a big fan of the Magic: The Gathering app (Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013), which is only on the iPad, iOS-wise. It'd definitely make the cut of 'best' if you already know or are willing to learn the vagaries of M:tG.

National Geographic does a lot of additional material for iOS devices and quite a few of them seem to be formatted exclusively for iPad.

Plants vs Zombies. Yes, there's an iPhone version, but it pales in comparison to the iPad version.
