I went crazy -

BAND :p
TETRIS :D
Omnifocus :rolleyes:
Things ( I really needed both like a Hole in the head) :D
AquaForest :D
Poker X :D
Trism :D

Plus one App to take note of thats free - Aurora Feint :D:D


Does anyone have any problems with APPs Crashing? Tetris and Aurora Feint are super unstable on my iPhone.
 
I did not buy any initially because I started adding them to my V1 before I got the 3G. I did not want to complicate the restore process.

Since then though, I have not bought any either. Nothing has really jumped out and demanded my money yet. It will happen soon enough I am sure. Couple programs I think I could make good use of, but I tend to be deliberate when spending money, so it takes me some time to consider it.
 
I only bought one, Tuner. I've downloaded a few of the free apps as well. I am looking forward to all the new apps that will be coming in the future as the ones on the Appstore now are ok but nothing special. Hopefully there will be a better IM app and I'm looking forward to the release of Spore. That should be very cool!
 
So far, Ive only bought SplashID to keep my passwords with me. I've also downloaded Pandora and Yellowpages so far, but those were free :) Will probably wind up downloading a game or two as well soon, and maybe Shazam...but thats all I have my eye on right now.

Ya Spore will be amazing. I would like a Strategy game though like the old game Empire Deluxe.
 
MLB (couldn't resist...video highlights only look good using Wifi though)
Enigmo (I needed a game to tide me over when I am without a connection)
 
I'm a big poker fan so I bought Texas Hold 'em...absolutely incredible game. So much better than any poker game I've tried on previous phones...not even close.
 
Paid For...
Super Monkey Ball
MLB At Bat
Tuner (because we don't get Pandora in the UK for some reason!)

Free

AIM
NY Times
Mobile News
Shazam
iPint
Light
Spanish
TapTap
Sports Tap

That is it so far!

I just went to install iPint coz it looks fun and it says I have to be over the legal drinking age in my country to download it! Thats retarded, it aint gonna make real beer come out of my iPod, is it? I downloaded it anyway, of course!

What is even more retarded is the fact it said I had to be over 17, when the age here is 18!

I purchased a few and also got a few free ones, both from my Mac as well as directly to my Touch.

So far, most have been okay and seem to get along with each other.

I would think that the experience would be roughly the same with the iPhone.
 
I've only bought two apps and one was actually by accident.

Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D
Sketches (accident)

Was going crazy downloading free apps so I had iTunes not prompt me for my password everytime and accidently bought Sketches.. turns out to be a pretty neat app but not for $5.99 lol

I will buy Super Monkey Ball and a few others this Friday when I get paid.

I downloaded AIM, AOL Radio, Facebook, MySpace, Remote, Twitterific, NYTimes, and Pandora for Free.

The only Paid app I got was the MLB At Bat...
 
I'm just getting free apps for now....Itunes does not need anymore of my money, besides unless they start having Mario games or at least Uno. I might add that the Pageonce, INC personal Assistant app is wonderful. i got all of my Banking, Credit Card accounts hooked up to it and it works wonderfully.:D
 
Free apps for me only. I don't see the point in games yet. Maybe I haven't been convinced because I haven't tried SMB.

I have a nintendo DS that plays games way better than it APPEARS the iPhone could (so far anyways).

Here's what I would love to see:

-MSN messenger/Adium IM client for iPhone
-Edit Office/iWork documents
 
One, the MLB app. With a couple exceptions I have little interest in, it strikes me that the rest are either slapped together or just filler. I'll wait a few months for the good stuff to start appearing. It's too bad Apple was so late with WWDC, they really should have had at least a couple "killer apps" like TomTom or Slingplayer available at launch.
 
The only thing I actually paid for was a game called Labyrinth.

I love that game.

Other than that, everything else has been free stuff.

I'm tempted to buy filemagnet but I don't have a MAC and it doesn't seem to work on a Windows machine.

I just want to copy documents to my iPhone for offline viewing, is that to much to ask for!?!? :p
