Yeah, it's awesome. I used to not really care about this stuff but I started going over my minutes recently and getting dinged with an extra $40-$5.

Do you get slammed with "farmville" requests everytime you log in like I do?

I don't like inviting friends to facebook games because then I become what I hate so much.

Every single day! I've got used to it by now...I find that I don't use facebook that much anymore, so that's the only blessing. Having these games on my phone though, well, it's perhaps not the best idea. I carry my phone everywhere. This is only feeding the addiction.

That is exactly the issue for me. I really never should've downloaded this and started playing!

Just out of curiosity what happens if you die? Is it game over or you just run in to the doctor? Also I should confess in case its someone here....but the guy named Pharoah doesn't have good ratings but has about $200 mill everytime I find them...and then they usually have a bunch less

That $10 price tag will keep that addiction away from me.

Although i'm thinking about getting Tiger Woods. Anyone have that?

People should just post every app that they have.
I just got my iPhone a couple weeks ago, so I'm still discovering some. Unless it has been posted in this thread I find it hard to find some good ones.
Since my phone is new, and I'm a student I haven't been spending too much money on apps yet. I think I've only bought 1 or 2 and paid less than $5 total.

Yup. I think it's great. I'm still trying to master the putting and I wish more items were available to purchase, but it's definitely EA quality. I was wondering if FIFA was any good...not sure if I want to purchase it yet.

FIFA isn't too bad. Controls do feel a little awkward though. I do agree that Tiger Woods is an excellent game and worth it.
Best game by far is Real Racing, and that Baseball Slugger game is actually really fun!

I was looking for something like that for a while. The best I came up with was QuickOffice. It sucked, though, and I eventually gave up the search.

FYI...

If you have Shazam for iPhone, DO NOT update it. They've released a paid version, and the old, free one only lets you tag 5 songs a month.

Existing Shazam users, however, can keep using their free, unlimited versions.
reading that though wouldnt you be able to update but still get unlimited.



edit: and I just went to app store and it says as an existing user when you update to shazam 1.8 you will keep unlimited tagging

So now I'm nervous to update.
Other than the possibility of losing unlimited searches and then having to pay $5. (all negative). Why would I want to update Shazam?
