iPhone apps S/D

have never understood the appeal of delicious library. If I want to know what I have, I look at the actual shelves. And it's not like I'm running a lending library, here.

Lol I have an iPhone ON IPHONE

thanks stet, i've been realizing this for months now. google keeps insisting it's a two-way sync, though! BS as far as I can tell...

specifically, google sync says that you can 'make changes on your mobile device and they will get pushed to google calendar and show up the next time you log in' which is bullshit.

you can make changes to google calendars that appear on the calendar app and they'll show up, but not for iCal calendars that are on the device, if the makes sense.

have never understood the appeal of delicious library. If I want to know what I have, I look at the actual shelves. And it's not like I'm running a lending library, here.

It's actually a tremendous help for me since > 50% of my books, CDs, etc. are in storage. When I need to reference something I can find it by which box it's in.

Is there a good app for watching or streaming AVI files on/to my iphone? Basically, to avoid having to convert them. I've heard OrbLive can do this... any good?

Simplify Media is now on version 2.0, and cheekily they've released it as a separate app, so if you were in on the original early enough to get it for free, you still need to fork out for an upgraded (ie working) version. On the plus side, it does work perfectly now, even with huge media collections

For reasons too tedious to go into, I reinstalled it today -- this being the original/free/slightly knackered version. As long as you're patient and set up the host machine to look at folders rather than the iTunes library file, it works like a bastarding charm. I'm actually really impressed (and not upgrading to the new one: ha).

haha totally agree. i guess cataloguing your shit is a way to spend your time tho. and for ppl like elvis i guess it is pretty useful.

Love this thing btw

Thought someone might want to see this sneaky tethering workaround:

loving the price erosion on games tht's led to a new 0.59p standard

^^^the perfect price for an iphone app imo, anything else is too much

Actually cataloging took no time at all... The barcode lookup feature makes cataloging a box of books go by very fast.

About time:http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/07/07/push-gmail-comes-to-the-iphone-%E2%80%94-through-an-app-if-its-accepted/

But, come on, I need to pay for this?!

it's .99 cents.

why does anyone really need it

it's nice to be alerted when you get an email instead of parsing the email application or waiting for it to check every 15 minutes?

same problem as w/all these sorts of things -- not giving my Google account login to some random joe.

why dont you trust ice cr?m

yeah i suppose

i guess this makes sense for people with like jobs, and who get email that is timely and important. if i had this application i would've gotten like fifteen beeps or whatever about funny pics of someone's newborn baby or about my friend's ~dramatic~ sex life

i guess you've never owned a blackberry

my girlfriend would kill me within a day after i got this application

yeah the fact that i get email on my phone at all is novelty enough atm

Forgive my noviceness, but does iPhone have infrared capabilities, and if so is there an app to enable you to use it as remote for tv, cd player, amp, DVD etc?

Nope, no IR. Plenty of remote control apps but they're pretty much all wifi based.

Bummer.

you can use it to view the infrared spectrum of light tho and see ghosts

iPhone'purity ring' application

Message for Elvis Telecom: any news from your pal about a NetNewsWire update? It's so crash-happy and unstable these days that I'm considering ditching it and going back to the web app.

(Which is a shame, because it's the one app I use every single day ... it just seems unable to handle the number of feeds I've got now.)

it STILL doesnt work!?!?

Byline is pretty damn good now

I know. But -- as we've discussed! -- I want to carry on using NNW on the desktop, 'cos it's absolutely ideal.

Apparently there's a new iPhone version in the pipeline. Hey ho.

(FWIW: occasionally nuking the iPhone app and reinstalling makes it a lot happier for a while, but come on ... that isn't really how these things should work.)

Hey cat freaks! This app is for you:

I had just convinced myself that I was going to get a Mac and the iPhone app SDK so I could build a World of Warcraft achievement viewer app and what happens? Blizzard announces a full ARMORY application that covers exactly what I was going to do.

fuckers

they have an app coming out tomorrow for those of you that took stet's advice a few months accountsand got a photo storage account with dropbox

anyone try the new space invaders from taito? looks like the iphone's rez

excited by the Dopplr app - anyone used it? It seems it could finally get right what Around Me and its clones have been aiming for.

Where's this dropbox app at?

apple rejected it because it could be used to transfer lady chatterly's lover.

Zenonia is a great jrpg for the iphone.

This new Space Invaders is pretty rad, headphones a must.

Anyone try Monkey Island ON IPHONE yet?

MI = awesom

This is as good a place as any to ask; is there a way to do ctrl-f / Apple-f on an iPhone touch keyboard?

no-one try space invaders infinity gene then? I'm waiting for the inevitable £0.59 sale

Civilization Revolution for iPhone now too! Pity I recently bought it for DS (though it's probably less cramped on DS). I'm still waiting hopefully for Catan.

likely no one cares except for me but, aside from not including faction rep, the WoW Armory app is pretty frickin' sweet
