I've tried free iPad apps in German, Japanese and Mandarin. They're pretty cool. They have flash card-type tests, phrases, simple sentences and such. I've studied German and Japanese, and speak two other Chinese dialects, so I have a bit of background to work with. I'm not sure how well the free apps would work if you were starting from scratch. The apps I've loaded are lightweights. I'd guess that the full-blown apps that you pay for are much better. There's a big selection in the iTunes app store.
