Nothing makes people more paranoid than a shiny new gadget, especially if it's an expensive-to-replace shiny new iPhone 3GS gadget fresh from Apple. Cases can't work miracles, but they can go a long way towards helping you avoid dust and dirt, nicks and scratches, and -- depending on how hardcore you go -- cracks and breaks. Oh, and they can also stylize your iPhone beyond Apple's...
Pocket Tunes Radio Forum Review by cjvitek For more Forum Reviews, see the TiPb iPhone App Store Forum! Coming from a Palm Zire/Treo background, I am familiar with Pocket Tunes (or Ptunes) - the default media and streaming audio player that came with both my Zire 72 and my Treo 680.

Frenzic Forum Review by cjvitek (For more Forum Reviews, see the TiPb iPhone App Store Forum! A new game....just what the iPhone needs! Actually, a little side note.

The Weather Channel Forum Review by cjvitek (For more Forum Reviews, see the TiPb iPhone App Store Forum! Okay, I am sort of a weather junkie.

Not as bad as some, but definitely more than most. That's why I was a little...

I came over to the iPhone from a Treo 680...
