productjoy what are some cool features of evernote that distinguish it from the average notepad app that comes preloaded on devices?
tommychen first of all, it's a platform so it can be used with many different devices (mac, windows, android, etc.) and and they stay in sync. secondly, it's more powerful than your average note taking app - notes can be recorded, snaped, type, uploaded and much more. Then there's features like OCR, tagging, sharing, and organizing. There so many use-case for evernote, try it and find yours. hope this helps.
productjoy lulz! didnt mean to put you on the defensive =P anywho it definitely sounds like a very useful app. thanks for the review, i'll be dl-ing this in the near future =)
tommychen didn't mean to sound defensive. just trying to elaborate :)
fnoo My wife uses this for everything. Every so often she tries to seduce me into using it myself. I think I'm mostly holding out to prove that my will is stronger than hers.
amyuhrich I feel like I wouldn't use this enough, but I think it's so cool that I really wish I had more use for it...
Skype App
works great for chat, voip, and video calls over wifi or 3g. video calls over 3g are a bit choppy and the quality is less than steller but acceptable.
Pixelpipe App
all-in-one solution, but sometimes it doesn't work.
amyuhrich What's the issue with it?
tommychen I've had issue uploading to flickr and posting to twitter. It says it worked but when i got to the destination, images are no where to be found.
Apple iPod touch 8 GB (4th Generation) NEWEST MODEL
picked one up on sale on black Friday as gift for a friend. great product for a very unapple-like price.

textPlus 4 Free Text + Pic Messaging & Free Group Text with Communities App
nice improvement, but i still like the more simplistic textie.
Path™ App
a lot of hype, not much special.
· app from iTunes
tommychen path takes pictures that you can share and limits you to 50 followers. instagram, another popular photo sharing app, does the same thing without the 50 followers limit but you can restrict access to only authorized followers.
riddlefish I don't get it--do you upload pictures to share with people?
tommychen Only photos taken with your iPhone can be uploaded and shared with up-to 50 authorized people.
AirBear App
ok, but nothing great. opening it twice while wait online, wasn't able to get into it.
Kindle Wireless Reading Device, Wi-Fi, 6" Display, Graphite - Latest Gen...
the light and affordable to way get into reading the modern way. contrast is very much comparable to a physical book and screen refreshes are a lot faster. if you want to get an ebook, this is the one to get.
Grocery iQ App
makes shopping more efficient with list catered to your stores product arrangement. easy to use once you've got everything setup, but setup is a b*tch.
Goodreads App
easy to use interface to their social book network (the modern book club). i use it solely to discover and discuss what my friends are reading. they've also added a ebook reader to the app that gets you to some public domain pieces, but i yet haven't try it.
Lonely Planet Hong Kong City Guide App
I definitely recommend getting this guide if you are visiting Hong Kong blind. It's Free on iTunes for a limited time.
Facebook App
easy way to use facebook on your mobile. the new update adds noticeable performance boost, support for groups and allows for a better use of status update and places.
Last.fm App
Great Internet/social radio app and service. I prefer this to pandora because it has more of an international presence and I frequently listening to international music.
Chase Mobile (SM) App
Decent you UI and feature set. I mainly downloaded to try the the check depositing feature and it works as advertised.
· app from iTunes
We Rule Quests for iPad App
Good to see ngmoco introduce more ways to make this old game more fun to play. Beware, this game is a huge time suck.
Hulu Plus App
good to have so you can watch/catchup with your favorite shows when you are out and about, but the required $9.99 really sucks. I only had the service for a month because I want to finish watching "Lost", but have since discounted my subscription.
VLC Media Player App
Plays many video formats. It really works! Videos need to be load through iTunes though.
VEVO App
The YouTube app for music videos. Good UI and works as advertised.
Fandango Movies – Times & Tickets App
Fun and easy way to find and research a movie. You can even locate a theater near you and purchase tickets all in app.
Mint.com Personal Finance App
Easy way to get a "bird's eye" view and keep track of your financials. I really like the budgeting feature with notifications to keep you alert.
