    Default Iphone application and mobile device/hand-held device app. thread

    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
    Wanted items:
    eHobby Orion Pax and Dion

    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.
