I dont have an iPhone yet, waiting for the june revision (assuming its accurate).. But I was curious as to how bright the iphone can get in complete darkness? IE do those flashlight apps put out a significant amount of light if you have your brightness up to full? Thanks!
Got a tip for us?

Depends on what you want the light for. It certainly is bright enough so you can see where you are walking in a darkened room. I wouldn't want to try to do fine work with its light, though.
Actually, for lighting a path in the dark, you don't need a flashlight application. Just turn it on.

I have used the iPhone home screen multiple times to guide myself up the stairs of my house in complete darkness to keep from waking others. I am sure a flashlight app would be brighter than just the home screen, but I have never wasted my time to download one.
I did -- it's useless. The home screen works find to make your way through a dark room.
