My top 10 iPhone Apps

I have now been using iPhone well over a year. There have been some great apps available through Installer, Cydia, and App Store. 

My top Apps for iPhone are :

(1) World Now - A great application for weather around the world - Free App

(2) YouNote - Single App which allows text note, voice note, picture note, web note and more - Superb App - Free App

(3) iXpenseIT - App for storing all info about expenses, including photo receipts - Must have - Paid App

(4) ProLoan - Great App for calculating Loan EMIs and comparing the various loan scenarios. May be very useful in todays tight financial environment. It is a brilliant app - Must Have - Paid App

(5) Speedtest - Wanna check the throughput of your Edge / WiFi connection, try this. - Free App

(6) AppSniper - Discover new iPhone Apps everyday. It is much better than App Store to search new apps - Must have - Paid App

(7) Quickpedia - Browse Optimised Wikipedia on ur iphone. Whats special is to discover Wikipedia articles about places near your current location. Works even on 2G phone - Great App - Free App

(8) Discover - Connect your iphone to your Computer wirelessly and start using iphone as your storage device - Must Have - Free App

(9) HelloCards - Terrific App to send greetings from your iphone - Must have - Paid App

(10) Pinpoint - Find your current location on the map and mail it to anyone - Must have - Free App

There are many more great Apps for iphone available. However, I would mention about one app that Steve Jobs should anyway include in the next version of iphone release. It is QUICKGOLD - What a search app for iphone contacts, email, browsed pages etc - Superb one click access. Should have been part of iphone as default. To top it all it is a FREE APP. (But available only for hacked iphones).

Ultra fast 1Ghz Phones

Toshiba TG01 phone is expected to be first phone running on 1Ghz processor, and will have amazing display resolution of 800*480 (2.5 times more than iPhone's 320x480). Other great features expected are :

• 4.1 inch display (compared to 3 inch of iPhone; iphone is looking tiny)
• Superthin thickness of just 9.9 mm thin (compared to 12.3 mm of iPhone)
• powered by ultra-fast 1GHz processor from Qualcomm
• G-sensor (tilt sensor) with shaking gestures
• Internet Explorer Mobile 6 with full Flash support included
• other features: GPS, HSDPA and HSUPA, etc etc

Close on the heels is expected 1Ghz phones from HTC.

Looks like 2009 will such many such phones in the market, and this should bring superfast computing to mobile phones.

I am great believer of mobile phones as convergent devices, and that is happening!!
