I was pretty amazed at the scale as well. The one that i used was not accurate, but I like the possibilities.
Shazaam is awesome.
I hate yelp for reviews but when traveling its helpful to find out what is in the vicinity.
Level Up originated in Boston i believr, I don't think it is too widespread yet but that might be the one I've used the most for consumerish type shit.
Also the GPS, riding the moped makes you take strange routes
Err ... making phone calls?
But seriously, I'm a recent covert to the iPhone it is a great device, fav things/apps are
Internet on the go
Camera - picture quality is so good saves carrying a separate camera
Playing Chinese poker while having a shit
Google Maps
Texting
Star Walk app - check it out - cosmic!
Stitcher
Tethering
Knowing that more or less whatever you want to do there's probably a $0.99 "app for that"
I like the find your I phone App, lets me track phones and I pad. Only problem is I can't figure out how to get both of the family's I phones signed up on the tracker, it treats them as one account.
The kids use netflix on our phones a lot, and the skype app sounds better on the phone than on the computer.
The trick is to test out a bunch of different ones. This is where those middle school science classes come in handy because you have the control variable i.e. the item that you have already confirmed as weighing a specific amount, let's say for the purpose of our experiment a totally random number that means nothing, like oh I don't know 3 and a half grams or so. Test it out with a bunch of different scale apps, there are plenty of them out there, and see what hits and what misses. The one I found was shockingly accurate and since I wanted something that just verified I am not getting ripped off when I go to the store or bodega that is fine for me, although it is probably not something that professional distributors would use.
I switched from blackberry to iphone and the biggest change is browsing. Sure you can browse on a blackberry, even with wifi but it sucks infinite balls! My iphone blows it out of the fucking water and its not even close. After that I'm going camera, again iphone just soul crushes blackberry in this department. I'm not all that huge on games in the first place on phones but as we already know the iphone is king. I don't even know why the general public bothers with the god damn blackberry, I mean I guess if you're emailing 25 times a day then you might want to go with it.
Skype video chat is crazy clean, it'll work with just 3g but it can get sketchy so obviously you're going to want wifi for that. I haven't really messed around with facetime but I'm assuming it's apples version of skype, also icloud is another product I haven't messed around with but I've heard people say it's beneficial.
Forgot Words With Friends - I'm totally addicted.
