iPhone apps we like

Been exploring our new iPhone now... Sooo many applications out there available for download... There are a few which we really like:

YM, Skype - pretty much the same applications that we have on our laptops. YM since, well, it keeps me in touch with friends and family. And Skype because of the calls. As long as I'm connected via WiFi, calling via Skype is always an option.

WordWeb - liked it then on our PC/laptop, still like it now on the iPhone. What makes this thesaurus much more useful is that it not only includes synonyms and related words, but also gives detailed explanation/s (of how to use the word in sentences) as well as concrete examples. Top choice for those who always end up using the same words over and over again. (I better use this now before I repeat some words again. :) Hehehehe. )

FantasyLens - For some reason, out of the so many photo-related applications out there, this one is particularly appealing to me. I guess it's the old paintings used.

UnblockMe - One of my personal favorite games. A real mindtwister if you go for the challenge mode (i.e. solve this puzzle in x moves); or a good way to relax and unwind if you opted for the relax mode (i.e. just solve it, however long it takes).

Pregnancy Tracker - In our case, this is obviously a reasonable application to have. BTW, it says that we are now at 6 weeks 4 days, and the baby is as big as a grain of rice. Also has some details on how the baby develops on a weekly basis -- gives us a pretty good idea of what is going on in there. Also gives tips on what to eat. Very useful. The only downside is that it's not free.

Well, that's all for now. :)
