At the risk of a good receiving a good lynching, what apps are working out for you? I'm only really sold on:

Remote,
FaceBook,
Graffitio,
Shazam,
(and a bit of bomberman).

Its rubbish you have to pay for the games

Hunch · 14-07-2008, 09:21

None of the above. So far I've installed

Tuner (plays 2,000 radio stations - the quality is outstanding - great to be able to listen to British radio walking down a country lane in Japan)

Truphone (Skype-a-like VOIP app - I'm sure Skype will arrive sooner or later but this is a good stop-gap in the meantime - sign up now and you get $4 free credit for calls - worldwide international calls are 3p per minute to landlines in pretty much any country)

Super Monkey Ball (Well why not - good for a laugh and plenty of levels)

郵便番号 / Yuubin Bangou (Allows you to find any address in Japan by typing in the Japanese postcode - probably wouldn't be much use in the UK)

Shazam looks interesting, but one of the reviews said it's only freeware for a trial period. Dunno if this is true.

The train planner thing is good, and free

I'm *cough* developing a free iphone game, watch this space

Phonesaber - it's the iPhone killer app.

Yea. damn those game developers who devoted countless man hours and effort porting their games to the iphone platform

Sgt Badass · 14-07-2008, 11:02

I was considering developing something for the app store to see if it provided a bit of pocket money, but I'm completely out of good ideas. Didn't notice the train planner - have to check it out.

aim is cool (if you use it)
twitter is ok
YPmobile is useful
and myspace if ur an addict (or facebook)
and of course Super Monkey Ball (def. addicting!)

Hunch · 14-07-2008, 12:50

Jesus Christ - Shazam is mental! I've tried some quite obscure shit and it hasn't failed yet.

fasterthanlight · 14-07-2008, 12:57

I can't wait to get an iphone.... I've got a Touch (which i might sell, or might keep... its money already spent)

and I'm definitely feeling the iTunes Remote... I installed a quasi-VNC app (called TouchPadPro) on my jailbroken touch to more or less do the same thing..... but its more about controlling the computer as a whole as opposed to iTunes specifically
