I just got Gun Spot. List all ( well maybe most ) FFL's in your immediate area so when I'm traveling I can find the cool fun stores!

The shot timer is a great tool and I like the ballistics calculator but it's a ton of info.

Ballistic is good and accurate - I've used it at the range many times to calculate bullet drop.

I just got "Letterboard" - stupid fun little app, let's you make your phone into a sign.  It's good for a quick laugh in meetings and such.  Marquee is similar, but the letters are the height of the phone and scroll.  Great for sending messages to people in the car next to you on the interstate, especially at night.

I'm an iPhone 4 virgin, receiving my phone last week...the following apps, so far, have worked well:

1. Foremost and great for accessing AR15.com (via my bookmark) - FIREFOX HOME.  It's not the browser however, the app syncs with your desktop or laptop by downloading your bookmarks and open tabs.  It's great and FREE!
2. QUICK TIP
3. BEST ALARM
4. FOX NEWS
5. MAHJONG
6. SLACKER RADIO (great for when I'm at work and sitting on the porcelain thrown)  
7. CONSTITUTION
8. BEATLES QUIZ  (I know, I'm an old geezer)  

Hope this help...let's keep this thread going....

Its fair. Works on 3G but is choppy on the receiving end.  A lot of lag.  Wifi is much better, still choppy.   For the cost (I think its free) its neat when the kids go to the beach and wife sends me life video feed.  Also just call the person who also has the program and then launch the app, and you have audio and video.

Well, I talked to the guy who did this program.  Apparently it works onr pre 4.0, so a fix is in.  Still works, just the refresh button crashes it.  Nice guy and a gun nut.  So I'm happy with the support so far.
