Glad you reminded me.

Does anyone know of an app that does this for Canadian (specifically Ontario) gas stations? Seems most of hem are for US and overseas.

Anyone playing Rolando? I picked it up today and absolutely love it. Lately i've been considering re-buying a PSP for Loco Roco, but I think this might have saved me the money...

Definitely recommend this game, especially to anyone who enjoyed Loco Roco. :)

Pretty much just two/three apps - the rest I do using Safari

Facebook

NOS Teletekst (Dutchies only)

Google App

Also; from personal experience, when I stopped using WinterBoard my batterylife increased - I was always keen on customizing the icons and wallpapers (nothing else tho) but my batterylife was about 2-3 days of 'normal' use on my 2G 8GB iPhone - now it's something like 4-5 days...

ScummVM :D

Oh and also Palringo :)

Although this is on the Touch, although no real difference.

How do you use ScummVM? As far as I know playing is almost impossible due the lack of a real right click.

Yeah, classics look WAY better than Stanza, but it look like it have a limited internal library and this isn't cool at all.

Specially for a Frenchie like me, reading a full English book would be a nightmare...
