Nephews, tropical storms, and ooooooooo…9 and oh baybee!

Parental update – started looking at VZW cause Dad noticed the Droid Does commercials. I think they’d like VZW, but not the device. Mom really wants an iPhone. Little reception in the house with AT&T, perhaps they’ll wait on AT&T’s femtocell. Holding pattern.

Top 5 Must Have applications and mini review- for any platform

Jerry – iPhone:  Non JailBreak: 1) PocketInformant 2)Faces Lite 3) Tweetie 2 4) iXpensit ) WhatsApp

Jailbreak: 1) sbSettings 2) Backgrounder 3) 3GEnabler 4) GVMobile 5) Intelliscreen

Alli – iPhone – 1) TaKePhOnE…only cause I love the old Palm stuff. 2) TV Forecast, while not a productivity app is definitely one of my absolute favorites. 3) PocketInformant 4) iCanSee***** 5) 10 Thousand

Jailbreak….1) GV Mobile. 2) LockCal Not really taking advantage of much beyond that for jb besides wallpaper/themes even though I have SBSettings and Backgrounder installed.

We both tried Shape’s (IM+) new app Business Card Reader. Working about 80% for me. Only getting one phone number.

80-85 recognition, but always lists the work number as home.

Jailbreak stuff in general. Gonna help @clarescoffee j/b. Slow down on icon design, but maybe do an entire new theme now that I know how easy it is. DiskAid – vavavavoom! No need to ssh.

Waiting on Element – new lock screen
