Recommended Posts

In no particular order...

* Night Camera (uses motion sensor to wait until the phone is totally stationary before taking a low-light picture.)

* Remote

* Shazam

* Night Stand

* Units (Converts everything)

... and 3 I use because I'm an Englishman living in France ...

* Translator

* Ultralingua

* €ssence (uses GPS to access a French website of current petrol (gas) prices and directs you to the nearest or the cheapest local petrol (gas) station.)

* ?ssence (uses GPS to access a French website of current petrol (gas) prices and directs you to the nearest or the cheapest local petrol (gas) station.)

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...

AppSniper, .99 on AppStore, it list all on sale items and new apps, VERY handy and list all freebees. Also let you watch apps you want to check for sales

Uno, 7.99 on AppStore, best game?

WiFinder, Free on AppStore, finds WiFis

MobileFiles, Free on Appstore, an iDisk reader for MobileMe subs.

TouchTodo, Free on AppStore, a free todo app.

Free RSS, well, it's Free and it read RSS...

Remote, Free on Appstore, remote control your itune with full playlist, what to ask more?

Aura Feint The Beginning, Free on Appstore, well, I don't care about the game RPG features, all I like is the Tetris-like part :p

rolando - probably the the most polished and complete game. my favorite iphone game.

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...

Just got my iPhone yesterday and so far ive installed . . .

    • Thanks free chatgpt. The issue is, with most browsers, is you shouldn't need tools to remove anything. It is the whole point of extensions. The only browser so far to man up and be honest that it needs money to function is Brave Origin. Don't like the monetisation and code bloat, have a clean browser for a one off $ charge. Firefox used to be that, but now it is a code bloat browser, hiding AI.
