Get "Around Me"... it starts from your location, no matter where you are, and tells you where the closest ATM, restaurant, bar, taxi, grocery store, hospital, hotel, etc. are.... touch your selection and it will call the number and/or GPS it for you on google maps (whichever you want).

Urban Spoon... great for restaurants (along with Zagat that someone else said).

Flixter for movies is another really well done app.

the google app where it searches by voice, so you don't have to type. Zillow is a good one for real estate; shows by map all the houses for sale in your area, including price, MLS details, and photos. There are a cuople good ones for doing conversions (currency, metric, etc.)....

Red Laser- this one turns your phone into a bar code scanner, and will read any bar code on any product in a store, then search the internet for the cheapest price available.

Uhhh... I got one called "Trapster" which shows all the police hideouts, live police, checkpoints, road blocks, etc... very handy if you're driving home after a few drinks

The Ebay and Amazon apps are good. Mobile banking app (bank of america for me) is good. Pandora is great but what sucks is that you only get 6 song skips per hour. Try "Last FM"... that app has unlimited song skips and plays international music too. Fuck man there are so many....

feX is kinda fun. It synchs you phone with your facebook contacts (finds matching names and transfers pics/general info on to yu iphone).

I also like NYTimes, financial glossary, Paper Toss, Geared and Aardvark (sending out random questions when you're bored).

Bloomberg

if you do any finance calculations on the fly you might want to get the "BA II plus" app from texas instruments.

the stock market app already pre-loaded is good. Also, there's one called "mixology" i think... has over 6500 drink and cocktail recipes for all occasions. Good shit.

Posted by KilldaDJ on Nov-24-2009 07:04:

the essentials...facebook, twitter, cydia (blackra1n.com), last.fm, midomi (which is alot like shazam) and panorama (for them wide panoramic shots )

get some games for it too, i wouldnt suggest any because it you would just be glued to it haha

'Airport' and whatever the hell the sequel is called (the one with the boats).

I don't get all the iphone hate. What's so bad about it? I find it to overall make things more convenient, not less.

i get random texts that don't make sense pretty regularly from my friend who has an iphone and all he does is complain about it lol he always acccidently pushes shit and it'll finish the sentence for him and i get the text and think ! makes no sense whatsoever.

in my opinion, the touch screen is garbage. too sensitive and i always accidently push something just from my hand grazing the screen and then i have to start all over. it's annoying as hell.

and as far as applications go, who the hell has time for all of this shit? i guess if you're a student or something, they can come in handy.
