Top 5 iPhone apps

Here's my list of essential iPhone apps. (Bit biased with the fourth one perhaps...)

Shakespeare: The complete works of William Shakespeare (free)
TapDefense: An addictive game that's also very hard (free)
Truphone: Make even your iPod Touch a phone via VOIP (free)
iScrollr: Display scrolling text to communicate across a crowded area ($0.99)
TubeStatus: Get updates of any underground delays. Versions in other cities also available (free)

Enjoy!

Android G1 emulator

For those wanting a better idea of what it'd be like to own one of HTC's new Google Android G1 phones, here's an emulator.

How does it compare to the Apple iPhone?

T-Mobile G1 and Android market

Details of Google's answer to Apple's iPhone, the G1, are emerging. Sounds like its camera will be 3MP (that's 50% more) and will also include a compass. Nothing to rave about yet but the price sounds like it could be reasonable too at around $200. No decision's been made yet but I'm glad I resisted and didn't buy the iPhone the other day! Android market will also surely be more open than the App Store... The manufacturers are HTC, a Taiwanese company - another thing in their favour!
