iPhone

Been loving my new iPhone. So many different apps to choose from! Anyone ever tried the Ziibii app? Here's a video on it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZXDbMTHQ1Y. Anyone else have other iPhone apps they recommend?

I love Pandora with a passion. There's also an app I have (forget the name) that tells you the movie times in theaters near you.

Thinking about getting an iPhone, but I am leery about AT&T's service. What do you all think about your service with AT&T? Does anyone have the nationwide service? Do you experience a lot of dropped calls? How much are your monthly phone bills? Have you had any technical problems with the iPhone itself? What do you think of the FM radio function? What are your favorite apps? My alternative choice is to join Verizon and get the Blackberry Storm.

Any commentary would be greatly appreciated

There is an issue when you are on the edge of the 3G network I guess. I am where I live, so I've had a lot of dropped calls and have had to turn the 3G off. I guess they are in the process of fixing this I have heard. Besides that they are great.

My area of CT gets better Verizon coverage, and I've heard a lot from people complain about poor coverage and dropped calls with their IPhone. It's one of the main reasons I may not end up getting one; I had to deal with bad coverage when I had Sprint in college, and I don't want to deal with that again.

ATT gets way better coverage here than any other provider. I want an iPhone but I have heard some bad things about them. I will just stick with my Blackjack for now.

I have AT&T, and I've never had a problem with dropped calls in the past 5 or so years. It probably depends on where you are, and how good your coverage is in general. I think that when I'm eligible for an upgrade in June, I'm going to get an iPhone.

It definitely depends; I know people who have the NYC area and in upstate NY and have no trouble at all. If I get to go back to Boston it won't be until at least 2010 anyway, when my cell phone contract will expire again; I'd just don't want to deal with dropped calls in CT for the next couple of years. The more I think about it I may just upgrade to a Blackberry and stick with Verizon.

OK so here's a question:

For those of us that have iPhones or iPod touches, what are your favorite apps?

I've got an iPod touch, and I love love love Wordle, Tetris, and Collapse. I just got Tap Tap Revenge and I have to say I really like that one, too!

Do you use Twitter? I like twitteriffic as far as an application for that - I'm pretty sure it's what kept me from being hit by that Phishing scam because you have to do changes to your friends from the web, and I'm horrible at adding people after they've added me.

ETA: I also like the recipe spinner. We've tried a couple so far and they're pretty good.
