I'm finding the new Ipad boring at the moment. Last year I had the wow factor of Garage Band, the camera as the Ipad 1 never had one, Real Racing 2 and so on.

Iphoto is boring. :(
 
Why don't you try this game?

It's free! :D found it cool, interesting and relaxing. .
Here's a screenshot.

Big Win Hockey. I'm a huge hockey fan (there is a soccer version too), so this game is pretty cool. Instead of playing hockey, you manage a team. Its cool and frustrating at the same time, because my team sucks, lol. But its all in good fun.

GTA3 is another one. The game was awful on the iPad1 because it just couldn't handle the game. It still blows my mind that a game I grew up playing on a console (PS2) is now on my phone and iPad.

Can Knockdown 2 is full retina. Zombie Gunship, Red Bull World Tour, Hard Lines is kinda like the old Tron game from back in the day. Draw Something is also Retina I think. I know Words With Friends is.

Zinio for magazines if you don't want to use Newstand. Flipboard for quickly checking web blogs like TUAW and Engadget.
 
You haven't mentioned that you don't want games. So here are a few good ones if you haven't yet tried them:
Plants vs. Zombies
Flight Control Rocket
Flight Control HD

Figure (recently released, but needing improvements) looks interesting if you're into creating music.
 
iPhoto is amazing on the iPad but you said you find that boring so I guess otehr photo editing apps are a miss.

Wonders of the Universe is amazing.
Solar Walk is also very good
Flipboard is a must
Pinball HD Awesome
