thrice Posted October 2, 2008 Report Posted October 2, 2008 There's an app out for Quantum of Solace (iTunes Store link) as well.
tyrion Posted October 2, 2008 Report Posted October 2, 2008 Offered without comment. Obama 08: The Official iPhone and iPod Touch Application Installed.
saint.panda Posted October 3, 2008 Report Posted October 3, 2008 Just came out: http://www.fring.com/download/iphone/ Multi-chat tool like IM+ but one that also allows VOIP calls using Skype and apparently even SkypeOut. Will give it a try later but it looks promising.
Hopstretch Posted October 3, 2008 Report Posted October 3, 2008 Just came out: iphone installation process Multi-chat tool like IM+ but one that also allows VOIP calls using Skype and apparently even SkypeOut. Will give it a try later but it looks promising. Sweet. I hope this works as advertised. I get crappy cell reception in my basement dungeon office but I'm sitting right next to my router.
saint.panda Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 No address book synchronization (unlike the real Skype) is of course a big minus (even more so since iPhone doesn't have copy paste), the login interface could be improved and buddy names are not editable, but other than that it works as advertised.
thrice Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 I've been using OmniFocus for a couple of days on the MacBook and the iPod Touch and I have to say it's the first iPhone/iTouch app I feel it's worth paying for. This application is awesome, it's exactly what I was looking for managing my time and I already couldn't live without it. Any users here? I've been using the combo for the last month or so...yeah, it's helping a lot.
saint.panda Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 Omnifocus 1.1 for the iPhone will FINALLY bring Bonjour sync so I can stop using that Apache Webdav hack. Supposed to be released soon.
GPH Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 Omnifocus 1.1 for the iPhone will FINALLY bring Bonjour sync so I can stop using that Apache Webdav hack. Supposed to be released soon. Yeah, that's great news. I'm on the free MobileMe trial right now, but I don't plan paying 100$/year for it when the trial ends.
elnero Posted October 6, 2008 Report Posted October 6, 2008 Posting from a new touch. I must admit it's pretty damn cool.
elnero Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 This one is one I have temporarily through my work for development purposes but I think I'm going to sell the ole 5G iPod and get a touch instead. I'd get an iPhone but the plans are somewhat expensive with very limited data here in Canada.
blessingx Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 Cool new app - WunderRadio. TUAW Review: WunderRadio - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)
n_maher Posted October 7, 2008 Author Report Posted October 7, 2008 Ok, let's have it - a must list for Apps.
thrice Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 Here are my suggestions: Wootwatch Remote Paypal iFlix Facebook Pandora SimplifyMedia Jaadu Air Sharing Chuckisms (just kidding, but did you know that Chuck always knows where Carman Sandiego is... always.)
GPH Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 If you jailbreak the firmware, Cydia and Winterboard are must haves to customize and theme your iPod Touch. Other than that, Omnifocus and Remote are the only 3rd party apps that I use on a regular basis.
n_maher Posted October 7, 2008 Author Report Posted October 7, 2008 The issue for me in finding useful apps is that more often than not my Ipod does not have web access. So anything that tries to either regularly ping a server (like weather apps or woot watch) or works through a web interface isn't going to work very well. The joys of a wired/non-wireless office.
elnero Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 HA! Try being on dialup at home. At least the office has a nice network I can access.
blessingx Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 Meebo Remote WeatherBug Pandora People eBay Save Benjis Evernote Movies Urbanspoon NYTimes TextGuru Kiwi ... and very likely the above WunderRadio once I get wireless.
thrice Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 1password (and the corresponding desktop app) is cool as well.
Hopstretch Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 1password (and the corresponding desktop app) is cool as well. Love it on the desktop, but the iPhone app sucks for reasons largely beyond their control (sandboxing rules etc.) Their first implementation -- letting you use bookmarklets in Safari -- worked far better and I think they've recently added that functionality back into the desktop version after getting a flood of complaints from whinging ingrates like me.
thrice Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 yeah the website login aspect doesn't work so well. But I do like the secure notes and wallet functions. It has come in handy a few times for me.
n_maher Posted October 7, 2008 Author Report Posted October 7, 2008 Add Dual Level Pretty neat and for an engineer a handy little app.
n_maher Posted October 8, 2008 Author Report Posted October 8, 2008 (edited) Add: Tilt Meter Lite Much more useful than the dual level app. edit - and of course no IPod would be complete without ResistorCode! Edited October 8, 2008 by n_maher
blessingx Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 Well downloaded yesterdays mentioned WunderRadio. I can vouch it's pretty cool. Listened to last nights debate commentary with it. Great to have lots of radio stations (nicely organized) on iPhone/touch. Icon could sure use some work though.
thrice Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 Since Apple has removed the iPhone App links and the iPod Touch App links in the App store, find new apps is a little bit tougher (those links featured apps organized by release date. You can still do that in each category, but nothing exists for all categories anymore). But.... AppShopper: iPhone App Deals and Discovery Neat little site that allows you to view, browse and filter out apps according to update/price change/new...etc.
