Props : iPhone Apps

I have to say in the time that I've owned my iPhone it has been a great user experience. Especially when apple opened up the phone for native applications. In my opinion the web apps didn't cut it, just too slow; although I must say their web development is very rich and can do a lot.

What apps do you like or find useful?

Here's a few of the apps (besides the ones we write) that I enjoy on my iPhone: (check out NanoTalons.com - new app comming soon)

 Pocket God - Great little game, a bit ego centrical; but it's fun to torture the little islanders.  Another good thing about this game is the developers keep adding levels as they go.  When I purchased this game it was 99 cents; but I believe its going to change to $1.99, still worth the price.

 Face Book - If you're a Facebook user I highly recommend the facebook app for the iPhone.  Simple to use and you have access to most of the facebook functionality, a must if you actively use facebook.

 Missile Command - I got this game for nostalgia, in the old days of the atari we used to play this game all the time.  This game contains both a new version and old version of the game, very well done.

 Pandora Radio - I have to say this is one of the best apps for the iPhone.  I used to load all my music on my ipod to listen to a fraction of the songs that I have wasting a great deal of space.  With the iPhone and a limit of 16GB, I have to plan which songs to load, etc; but with Pandora it doesn't matter.  If you have good 3G coverage in the area you live you're set, enter the artist or song and it will play it and similar songs.  If I recall correctly it allows you to buy songs straight from itunes; but I must admit I have not used this feature.
