Well if you didn't buy the wrong baby you wouldn't have had to throw it out with the bathwater (why did you put your phone in the bath anyway? :p )Quote:

Here's one that sounds really interesting and I'm downloading it right now.
Top 10 Must-Have Apps for the iPhone, and Some Runners-UpQuote:
EVERNOTE (FREE) The company advertises this as a personal digital assistant, and it’s an apt description. Evernote is a traveling notepad that synchronizes with desktop and browser software (also free). Use your iPhone to copy an image, take a photo, record a voice memo or jot down a note, and it appears on your computer (and vice versa). It also recognizes your written text, within limits. The free version stores a fair amount of information, but for $45 a year, you needn’t sweat the data limits.
This one is a "must have" for those who enjoy music but often miss the title. I continue to be amazed by what can be done with these devices.

SoundHound
Quick – name that tune!
We've all heard a song on the radio and hoped the DJ would tell us the artist and song title, but that almost never happens.
Enter SoundHound. Simply start the app and click the big orange button. SoundHound will listen to whatever song happens to be playing and retrieve the artist/album information from the Internet.
SoundHound touts itself as the world's fastest song identifier app – often working in as little as four seconds. I can vouch for this speed.
I had been using another app for identifying music, but it was missing as much as it was identifying. After I had looked at alternatives, SoundHound was the clear choice.
There is a free version that lets users ID up to five songs per month. An unlimited version is $4.99.
I happily paid the $4.99.
Besides letting you know who's playing that cool song on the PA system at Stars games, SoundHound also finds lyrics and YouTube videos.
You can also sing or hum a song, although the success rate is lower. You can even speak an artist's name and get a ton of information back.
Shazam is the much more famous alternative. And it's free!
Or you could just listen to the song and put the lyrics in google. Works for most songs :)Quote:

Most apps are a ripoff. I paid 79p or something for my media control app and it was well worth it for those times the media centre remote falls off the bed :p I've not really bought many apps. I've bought a wake on Lan app and I think that's it.Quote:
