discuss away..

My favourite apps

Xe.com app. - that allows you to display 6 currencies of your choice
ebay app. - you don't have to continuely visit the mobile ebay site
tap tap revenge - DDR old school for the thumbs
urbanspoon - tells you the closest restaurant with the criteria you want

i am using a crappy budget app. could someone recommend something better, that allows you allocate funds and roll them over into subsequent periods, too lazy to look through iphone forums

I use a beautiful converter called Convertbot. It converts everything (lengths, weights, etc) and even currencies. Not sure how much it costs, but I got it on special for a buck (wtf, it's only a buck ;))

I find both the eBay app and eBay site painful.

I keep track of every financial transaction I conduct in an app called SplashMoney which syncs with my desktop and a secure info database app (to store serial numbers, passwords, bank account numbers, etc) by the same company called SplashID which also syncs. SplashMoney isn't without its quirks, but I used to use it when I had a Palm OS Treo, so am quite familiar with it. It's extremely full-featured.

I load up NetNewsWire, an RSS reader, when I'm bored, which also keeps track of what I've read on my Mac and iPhone in sync.

I was using iTransit, which is a web app for timetables, but the recently released official Metlink Melbourne is quite good and a native app as opposed to a web app.

Pocket Weather is proper Australian BOM forecasts.

"Things" for synchronizing task management and iSSH for when I have to get my hands dirty.

The most important apps to me are the built in ones though. :cool:
