Anyone have a IPhone or Ipod Touch?

[Fire N Ice]

Was introduced to kind of an neat one that is free right now.
It's called Knocing Video. You have to make an account and then it allows you to "knock" one of your friends and stream live video to thier phone.

I currently am using:
Sin Finder: Helps locate bars, casinos, theatres, clubs and smoke shops near you
X-rayFX Pro: So I can do pretend x-rays on my patients (great lulz)
Lightsaber
Emergency Radio
Bebot
RedLaser Scanner
Retro Recorder
EMF Detector (Shush, I don't like ghosts sneaking up on me.. or robots)
Slacker

I love iPhone for making me realize how much useless crap there is out there that I can't live without.

I also play Words with friends, I suck at it..if anyone wants a game PM me

That knocking video app looks pretty neat! I think I may have to try it out...

Ugh, Verizon really needs to start carrying the Iphone. Not having a mic or camera on the Touch is really limiting the apps I can utilize...

 

[Drunkwaco]

I realize The Zune doesn't have everything the Ipod has but i hate Apple so i was willing to go with the Zune and still happy about it.

 

[tribalmasters]

How do you say Verizon? Not being American I can't say it properly hehehe!

Now these apps have me interested

X-rayFX Pro: So I can do pretend x-rays on my patients (great lulz)
Does one need the iphone to use it? Ipod touch has no camera

Lightsaber
Yess!! I got that one

Emergency Radio
This sounds interesting! What does it do? I have Internet Radio Box is it similar?

RedLaser Scanner
Sounds cool!

Retro Recorder
Yess! Are we talking LINE-IN recording perhaps? I hope my iPod can do that some day

EMF Detector (Shush, I don't like ghosts sneaking up on me.. or robots)
Oooh gotta get that one!

Useful apps found inside my ipod touch are
Zippo lighter program where one can play with a virtual lighter!!
iPint where one can drink a fake pint of Carling
Internet Radio Box turns the iPod into a beautiful Internet radio especially nice with a dock!
Golf games a plenty!

Of the most dreamed up exciting thing I would like to do with my little glass friend is record LINE IN like what Minidisc players could do I will have to do some research into if that is possible as it will make my iPod very useful indeed!!

So jealous! Zunes look beautiful and from what I heard work great! There is a very bad problem though we can't get them here 8-o maybe one day Microsoft will give some Zune goodness to everyone but until then we are stuck with iPod and Cowon iAudio and the usual Philips and Creative type of player!! There is nothing I can find with the power of Minidisc and the ruggedness and capacity of MP3 player!!

It also means voiding your warranty.

Yea I love my Zune. Music sounds wonderful but mostly I got it so I could upload my Anime and watch it at work.
Just finished Berzerk. I think i'll start putting Naruto on it and rewatch that.

Does it support line-in recording? Its suprising that not many MP3 players have such a useful feature! All I could find that had good sound quality and an adjustable recording level was some overpriced thing with an expensive mic attached I guess that is why Minidisc is still around hehe!! All the Minidisc players will die some day, the mechanism goes wrong often!!

and it dies for some reason allowing no access to iTunes and Apple find the firmware flashed will void your warranty!!!!

Of course hopefully that won't happen

Yes You have to use a progarm to do it thou. I use Total commander I'm pretty sure it does Line-in. The only draw back I find is that while I can do all sorts of cool things with my movies, anime, music. Much of it is done with user made programs that for me (not very good with that techicnal stuff) takes a lot time to learn how to use.

For those that say they "hate" Apple. Can you enlighten us as to what exactly they have done to deserve your "hate"?

Are they poor corporate citizens?
Do they exploit child labor?

Do they make lots of money? (Oh, now I see)

 

[macscac]

the apple vs microsoft thing is as ......ed as the intel vs amd
people are stupid.
unless that corporation has personally wronged you or your family.. your just being a chump.

Well said!! Why people feel the need to go mad and shouting verbal abuse over which inanimate box of tricks they own is beyond me!

I'll take a look at that app, it will be very handy indeed

Are themes for the jailbroken iPod or can anyone buy and use them!?

Mind you it is actually the 'Apple fanboys' that are the worst IMO if you head over to places like Engadget it is always Apple fanboys starting the fights! Of course, normal Apple users and Microsoft users are happily using their box of tricks without complaint

It does the job that needs to be done *pats clunky ugly PC*

I'll have to read through this all after I post, but the ones I use more often than others are Facebook (obvious reasons), Yahoo! (quick news check), VehiCal (tracks gas mileage, costs, and repairs), DirecTV (to set the DVR away from home), Bill Minder (obvious reasons again), PhoneFlicks (set my netflix), and Flixter (to check local movie theater times).

Some others that I use less often are iDisk (mac cloud computing and file sharing), Skype (when I'm traveling it's cheap to call home), Chase (check my cc balance & pay my bill), McCormick Recipe Finder (for if I'm craving something or want to try something different for dinner), and Dual Level (I've used this hanging pictures, leveling the TV stand, etc.).

Some other "cool" apps are Drink Pro (obvious reasons), Shazam (if your driving down the road and this awesome song comes on but you have no idea the name or author, launch this app and click the button, it uses the mic to listen for ~15 seconds and comes back with the author, name, album, etc and you can click the music video to play it right then again on your phone).

Beautiful theme! I love it. I miss my iPhone...

But yeah, Jailbreak it. Kindle for iPhone is great (you can even get the free Stephen King eBook!! Totally worth it) and a game that I think is called iGod or something... You have these people on an island and you get to play with them
