Friday Funday
So, this friday the new Iphone 3g comes out. Not sure if I am going to be picking one up right away though. I want to play with one first and see if I like the new plastic shell and see just how much faster 3g is. The new 2.0 software should be coming out the same day for FREE download on Itunes so I have a feeling my old school Iphone is going to be just as nice as the new one aside from 3g and Nav. I dont think I will really use the Nav but 3g would be nice so we’ll see. My bud Chris helped me unlock my Iphone a while ago and has been working great since. A few of the unlocked apps I have been using on the phone have really turned the phone into what I think the Iphone should be.
Video Recorder – a simple video program that works great. Record your video and either email it to your friends or directly upload it to your You Tube account. Awesome. Why didnt Apple give u this?
Volume Boost – finally I can hear my Iphone ring in my pocket. The speakers arent the loudest on the phone but this little app really helped out alot. Once again, Apple are you listening?
Games – I have Tetris and Solitaire on the phone and they both rock. Great time killers when traveling.
Streetflow – great app that uses the Iphones locate me feature (finds where you are located when you start the program ie: city, sate). It displays all of the current restaurants around your area with reviews. This is great for people like me that travel a bunch and are looking for something to eat in unfamiliar areas.
Capture – cool screen capture program. Right now there is no way to save attachments to your Iphone which sucks. Capture lets you take a screen capture of anything and save it to your camera roll. This is great if someone sends you a picture you want to keep!
Agile Mobile – really good AIM, MSN, YAHOO, ICQ and more messenger that works both with and without WIFI signal.
Hopefully, all of these and more will be available for ALL in the new apps store which launches with 2.0. An unlocked version of 2.0 is already scheduled to be released almost instantly after 2.0 comes out. How these people get their hands on the software early is beyond me, but hey I like it.
Some spy shots of the new 3g Iphone have already been leaked ofcourse. Like this one.
