I’m addicted to my iPhone. The most addictive quality of the iPhone is its extendability through the App Store. There’s so many good programs to add and at the same time so much junk (a little like Windows that way!) I thought I could help out some of my fellow tech nerds with my top 5 recommendations.
1) Truphone – this sweet little application lets you make cheap international or local VOIP calls from your iPhone. All you need is a WiFi connection. Free.
2) Stanza – a sweet e-book reader for the iPhone, based on open standards unlike the Kindle. Aside from full versions of public domain historical works, you can also download and read stories from a growing list of periodicals like The Atlantic, Wired and Tech News. So far I’ve read George Orwell’s Animal Farm. Free.
