IPhone 2.0!

OK, I'll admit Apple has grabbed me by the balls and squeezed tight.

The new Iphone 2.0 software is sweeter than chocolate. Kudos for Apple making that a free upgrade for existing 1st gen users.

There's a cool new "apps atore" - similar to the itunes store, which allows you to browse and find apps for the iphone.

Cool app #1:
Remote -- turns your Iphone into a I-Tunes Remote control.

Couch potato that I am, I can now change the music playing on my computer from anywhere.

Some fun possibilities here:
How about goosing your house guests from afar. Create a few mp3 messages and add them to a play list in ITunes. Leave the computer running and the speakers on when you are away.

Goose your guest, using "Remote" to play your special messages
For example: " I told you not to bring home any tricks" -- (say at 2 am?)

I'm always forgetting where I parked my car, this next app fixes that problem.

App # 2 Jott's for Iphone. It's a voice memo recorder on steroids. Record a brief message on the iPhone - the message gets transcribed, and shows up on their website, your email or can be sent to someone.

So ever wonder where in the world waldo is? This next app tells you.
App# 3 Whrrl - Let's your friends light up icons on a map using their location info.
Mashup of local info, reviews, and opinions from your friends.

Just learned there's a donut shop arround the corner. Who knew?
