OK Apple, all is forgiven. You fixed my laptop, replaced my bricked iPhone, and, most importantly, updated it to version 2.0. And oh my, do I ever love version 2.0.
I've been hooked on my iPhone since I got it. It's not just a phone, or a drool-inducing status symbol. It's also been a camera, a web browser, a photo album, a music player, and a stopgap toddler-entertainer (those handful of Yo Gabba Gabba video clips have saved many a BART ride)
But now, I can install programs on it. And some of them are pretty darn cool.
My current faves:
Pandora - my "radio stations" are finally getting some airplay by me, now that I can take them with me anywhere I go
NetSketch - an awesome little drawing program that lets you upload your creations - and then download them in vector format for further editing in Illustrator. Plus you can collaborate with others (not that I've tried this yet)
Picoli - Just discovered it this morning! This program lets you adjust the brightness, contrast, sharpness, and other aspects of your photos. It then saves the edited versions as separate copies, so you still have the original if something goes horribly wrong.
BrainChallenge - Oh my aching brain. I'm hooked on these little puzzles.
VoiceRecord - Great little recording program which I immediate used to record a work interview.
I'm also enjoying Trism, More Cowbell, Jared, NYTimes, Labyrith LE, Jott, and Stanza.
