iPhone apps S/D

I knew that extra 8GB would come in handy some time!

Zen Bound, anyone? It was recommended by a colleague ... you, umm, wrap bits of wood in string. It's meant to be relaxing and I can see how it might be ... took me a few not-very-relaxing moments to get the hang of the controls, mind you.

zen bound is lovely (and most expensive app i've bought)

i spent AAAAAges looking for something that did streaming radio properly (without relying on built in libraries of streams). Solution: fstream http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=289892007&mt=8

anyone bought the paid-for twitterfon?

I'm kind of astonished by how good Zen Bound's physics are. Looking forward to tooling about with it a bit more this week. I'm just installing Myst now, too :)

I like Tweetie better that Twitterfon. Haven't tried the new Twitterific.

It's lovely. Pisses all over the desktop version now, too.

Zen bound is great to begin with, but after the first couple of hours the objects it starts throwing at you stop being fun and instead become fucking irritating.

I'm really not sure about it, TBH. It's not as satisfying as I want it to be. Although oddly compelling all the same.

tweetie ROCKS.

i also installed lexulous on my iphone. hurrah!

does that find all your tinniest mp3s and play them loudly when it can tell you're on the top deck of a bus?

Is lexulous a scrabble clone? I already have the scrabble game, which is great, especially with the facebook connect.

Worst thing about Tweetie is that it puts DMs and mentions in separate tabs, and doesn't highlight that you've got new ones.

Developer is weirdly fixed on making everyone use Twitter His Way -- took loads of complaint before he allowed you to keep track of where you'd read up to

Maybe this is not the right thread for this, but can anyone tell me the best method for traveling Europe with an iPhone 3g? I know that a different power supply is needed, and that it's been suggested that one should have it unlocked and a different simcard... ? Thanks for any practical/useful non-sarcastic tips.

I guess asking for non-sarcastic tips will always leave me high and dry on this board ;)

I thought it was a 'global' phone so didnt need to be unlocked

also i called about using it in australia. higher call rates and the data rates were ridiculous.

I'm not the best guy to ask (I have no cell phone) but I have friends in Europe who just switch sim cards as they travel from e.g. France to Italy, on which they have accounts. I think they even did this when coming to the US.

cant switch and iphone sim card. really, i dont think you need it unlocked or switched or anything

ah shit really? even if it's unlocked? I was thinking of picking one up in France next month and getting a cheap-ish one-year deal, then by French law it's unlocked after a year. I thought I could then just pop out the sim and come back to the US with an iPhone I could use on any network (not just the expensive AT&T plans). I guess I can't?

MWhite talked about using his iphone in both the US & EU before.

Also, whens the 3.0 update supposed to come out?

well, i cant see where you could without dismantling a little. people do use them on other networks though so i guess thats what they do? im just saying if youre going to visit europe at&t probably wont be unlocking anything for you. the buying a french one idea might be a good one.

yeah I was thinking the sim was accessible w/o surgery on the phone, will have to look into this more

its accessible! isnt it? little pinhole on the top of the phone?

it is on my 3g at least

gis indicates yes, in fact it looks totally easy, rock on

If you have an AT&T phone, you will need to get it unlocked if you want to use local SIM cards. It should work all over the world, but TURN OFF DATA ROAMING (!!!!!!) if you go abroad, or you will get REAMED on your phone bill.

where's the app that allows you not to spend memorial day weekend at the apple store?

peggle only 0.59p till 14th june

I upgraded to 3.0 and lost all my peggle saved games ajsdkfljsadlkf

i have played SOOOOOOOOOOO much peggle on this ish

me too.

if I have peggle on iphone, can I also install it on my gf's ipod touch?

zomg, i just checked this thread and was gonna mention Peggle. so hooked!

Really digging Isotope right now. Closest thing to Geometry Wars on the iPhone

so i got the iphone 3.0 update ON IPHONE early

it blows my mind why they did not include landscape for text and email originally. changes the entire enjoyment of the phone for me to be able to text sideways.

i am wordier now

u are stronger, a better communicator, a better lover

how did you get 3.0 already? Doesn't it get released on 6/17?

i am stronger, a better communicator, a better lover ON IPHONE

beejive would tempt me if it werent so pricey
