en480c4 Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 I'd been researching turn-by-turn GPS apps for a while now, and had set my sights on Navigon's package for $80. Then they released their My Region app for $25. The country split in thirds, and if you find yourself needing another region, it's $12.50, and it's already on the phone. The purchase unlocks it. Graphics are quite good, and I'm suffering none of the issues people have complained about in the app store reviews with my 32GB 3GS. Only drawback is that it's 1.2 GB, but that's a plus in that you don't need a 3G (or Edge) signal to access maps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvdunhill Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 cool, I've been waiting for someone to recommend one of these. Do you have some sort of cradle to mount the device picked out? Can anyone tell me how to manually associate album art in iTunes? 80% of my stuff doesn't get picked up by the "find album art" button, and I'd like to manually add them...

luvdunhill Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 yeah Reks that totally works, thanks! I somehow figured get info would be a read only type of info, and never tried that option... ah the days of youth when we brute forced everything in an application to figure things out.....

en480c4 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 I'm just using a generic vent mount from Best Buy. Most iPod/iPhone mounts don't play well with cases. It worked great on my trip last weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blessingx Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 For those who bulked at Wolfram Alphas $50 app (when the site was free), it just dropped to $1.99 (though site still free). Wolfram Alpha lowers iPhone app price, will give refunds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jinp6301 Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 I don't know what all the features of Simplify Media was/are, but it sounds like a few of you liked it. I've been using DOTTUNES and I can listen to my entire iTunes library from anywhere with a 3G or Wifi connection with my iPhone or Macbook. You should check it out. The only problem is that it doesn't let you share videos or photos, just your music playlists. You can give people a user name and PW, or set up a guest account, and you can set which playlists certain people have access to. It uses your home internet bandwidth to serve the music, and people can access it by trying to visit your external IP address from the web. If you don't want to have to worry about remembering and logging into your external IP address and want an easy to remember domain name, then you can get someone like no-ip.com to issue you a domain name that links to your home IP address. You also can run an app that no-ip.com supplies on the home computer that updates your external IP with no-ip.com if it changes, so you can still get into your home computer. Wow, the itouch version is like $50 bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadphoneAddict Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Wow, the itouch version is like $50 bucks I've been using it since it first came out, when they were the only player in the game. Then wiitransfer.com came out, and they might be cheaper. I haven't checked in a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then wiitransfer.com came out, and they might be cheaper. I haven't checked in a while Misread the site. It was $20. But I ended up getting OrbLive for $5 and using that. It works great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopstretch Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I really wonder what they're going to do with 4.0, and also wonder why they're previewing/pre-announcing now rather than just dropping it with the next iPhone hardware rev? Maybe Apple are are actually feeling the heat from the Evo and the pace of Android development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrice Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Devs need time to develop. The more time they have the more polished the product is at launch. Also, the more things there are at launch for the new OS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
