Round Robin: Help TreoCentral Jennifer with iPhone 3G

pdaluver · #1 (**permalink**) 12-15-2008, 12:42 AM

Well, it's my turn with the iPhone 3G in the Round Robin! I bought one a couple or 3 weeks ago and have been wanting to play with it. And now I can!

I've been downloading some fun apps. Are there any good utility apps that any of you have used and would recommend?

I like the Weather that is included on the iPhone, but is there a weather app that gives more detailed information like wind velocity, etc.?

I've been messing around with the Maps and like the GPS. How do I look at the "street view"? I heard that there is a street view but haven't seen that option anywhere.

Good luck everyone!!

Welcome Jennifer! Here's hoping the iPhone restores a little of that Palm OS Zen to your Round Robin experience.

As quick map of Google Maps, we whipped up this flow chart. Hope it helps!

For a better weather app I suggest WeatherBug, it is a free app.

I prefer The Weather Channel app. Free as well.

For instant messages spend the money to get BeejiveIM. Best IM client there is on the iPhone or WM. IMO.

Right now I get the most real use from WhatTasks and Air Sharing. Great apps and inexpensive.

I would go with the Weather Channel app as well. It is pretty nice.

Thanks everyone! I'll try out those apps! I can't wait!

I downloaded The Weather Channel app and LOVE it! Thanks for the recommendations! I looked at many other weather apps too, the free and the paid apps. Lots of them very interesting, but I think I'll stick with The Weather Channel for now.

I also downloaded the lite version WhatTask and I like it too!

Anybody using Smart Dial? I got that this morning and so far, it seems to work pretty good. I have waaaay too many contacts since I set up my iPhone to sync all my email contacts. I've got to go back and change that. Many contacts are repeated like 3 or 4 times.
