OK so I just got an iphone....

does anyone have any favorite apps???

Facebook, AroundMe, Trapster, Sirius Radio and USA Today are some of mine.

Let me know how you like your iPhone. I'm trying to decide between an iPhone and a Droid.

Well so far I love it! I've loaded my music from itunes on it and the store transferred all of my contacts from my old phone.

I made of folder of pictures for the iphone which included most of the people in my contact file so I could put a picture with each of them. When I synced from itunes I chose that folder of pictutes to sync and darned if it didn't end up on my phone

I'm not techie and I was able to have all that happen very painlessly. (I had to ask the guy in the store how to turn the phone on )

I have the instructions to make my own ringtone...haven't done it yet. I've always had hot, hot hot as my ring...however you cannot just buy a tone from AT&T for this phone. It looks like I need to go into itunes and create it from the song

The only times I ever texted was to Molly during the hurricane. All I've ever used a phone for before was to call someone. So this should be an adventure...

Good luck, Nancy!

Shazam is a great free app. Use it when a song comes on that you don't know the title, it lets you know the name of the song etc. Of course it also lets you know you can buy it on I Tunes.

I have owned the I Phone for about a month and love it.

Molly there is now a NHRA app that gives live results from the races, they also have it for some Blackberries too.

ohhh cool!
I've read about the app and wondered how well it worked. But we don't have to worry about that for a few month.

One of the DJ's here swears by calorie counter if you need to watch those calories.

Loseit it is the app I swear by... helped me lose 70 lbs..(thats if you need to )

I'd be afraid it would cause me to lose the phone!

Pandora is my fave app. It takes the place of my radio and cd player in the car now. Shazaam is pretty cool.

Oh Nancy, your going to love it!!

Tom and I both have one now and love them!!

only have a few apps, we have the Bump one so we can share info with eachother
Pandora is good
Betty Crocker cookbook
Facebook
REdlaser is kinda fun, you scan an item and it tells you the price
Urbanspoon- to find resteraunts

and a few games.... Mahjong, papertoss, Beerpong

Its fun also to get podcasts, I listen to a few!

Good luck with your new toy!!!!!

OK I've had the i phone for a while now and here are some of my favorites.

Scrabble & Boggle
Bejeweled
I Bird midwest
flight track
gate guru
woot watch
urban spoon

And my main fav right now is the free Kindle app. I never used a cell phone much in the past because I'm not much for talking on the phone. However, I've used the apps a LOT.

Hey Nance, just got an iphone today. May need your help on the ringtone thing.

Thanks for the info on apps, I'm checking them out now. Just updated my itunes so I'm ready to plug in the phone to the puter and see what happens...hope it doesn't blow up!

Keep the info on apps coming!

Congrats! You will absolutely love this phone. Here We Are is available as a ring tone. I finally chose it after it turned out to be to complicated for me to get Hot Hot Hot.

Thanks Nancy.
I saw that on Nutmeg's list and was going to ask if there was a reason to get ibird over the audubon guide (other than price). I know the audubon one was recommended by birders world, that's what got me on the whole iphone quest to begin with.

do you buy the ringtones on itunes or at ATT? I was looking in the itunes store but didn't see any ringtones, I thought they used to have them. Guess I need to find a 9 year old kid to handle the ringtones for me.

Here are a few of my favorite apps :

Facebook
Accu weather
Yelp (travel)
Bejeweled 2 (games)
Doodle jump (games)
Air Sharing Pro (use your iphone as a portable harddisk)
Remote (use your iphone to contril itunes on your pc)
