First Look: TomTom GPS app for iPhone 3G/3GS(USA/Canada)

After over two months of anticipation, the TomTom turn-by-turn GPS app for the iPhone 3G and 3GS is finally here. I took it for a spin and here are my first impressions. Overall, it seems to be a competent navigation system with some interesting features, but considering its price tag, it didn’t blow us away to reign supreme in the category.

I’ll follow this first look up in a week or two after more thorough testing.

Bloom – iPhone App – By Brian Eno

Uncategorized 25 Comments »

Bloom – Created by Brian Eno & Peter Chilvers

Bloom is a generative music application for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

The application acts like a keyboard. You can use your fingers to generate a melody that will play back in a loop. A soft background pad accompanies the melody.

You can choose to let the program run randomly, or you can choose to create.

You can select different “moods” (9 of them) that change the scales of the “piano”

The application is currently for sale at the App Store (on your iPhone/iPod Touch) or iTunes for $3.99

Get A Good Night’s Sleep With White Noise For iPhone

Uncategorized 25 Comments »

In this video, I demonstrate a great application for the iPhone which simulates many different soothing sounds to help you relax. Often when traveling, these types of devices are used to simulate familiar environments in order to get more rest. White Noise allows you to simulate these noises right on your iPhone! It includes sounds such as Water, Beach, Air, Car Rain, Light Rain, Hair Dryer, Amazon, Cars, White Noise, Pink Noise and the like. I have personally used this application with the “Water” sound to get a good night’s sleep. If you are curious about White Noise, it is absolutely free on the iTunes App Store. Enjoy!
