What's the coolest thing you've done with your phone.

return home while playing some music in my headphones and be able to switch instantly to my wireless speakers just hitting a single button. damn, I love airplay :)
 
-Used VNC to log into my Mac at home from work via the iTeleport app.

-Booked/negotiated last minute accommodations at the beautiful Hotel Palomar in Dallas for an unheard-of rate ($89) via the Priceline Negotiator app.

-Tethered my MBP while at our resort in middle-of-nowhere Texas (that didn't have wifi) via the tethering hack when I was jailbroken.

-Countless times I've navigated myself from being lost via the Maps app and built-in GPS.

-Taken high quality pictures/video of the Razorbacks whooping the mess out of LSU (and many other teams this year and last year). :p woo pig!

-Plugged my iPhone into my DICE receiver in my bimmer for playing music and charging, integrated it with Parrot bluetooth for a fully hands-free environment. By far my favorite and coolest thing I can do (in my opinion).

I never understand why Android people say true multitasking, why do you Want a game that you're not playing running in the background. No wonder the battery life on most Android phones suck. Another thing too I open over 60 apps on my iPhone just to see if it would slow down, not one bit can't do that on any Android phones.

With Andriod theres an app that allows you to get rid of ads which is good for the user but for the developer If I was a developer I'd be pissed about that.

I dont why people just say about games and other memory hogging apps, I for one would love the option, even with a warning from Apple after maybe enabling it on options, it's infuriating having to wait ages for my messenger app to reconnect after app switching. Id love for it just to be there, ready.

Hooked it up via 3G to my Jag, enjoyed my music on a 1 hour drive to my aunts house, remotely opened her garage door, and accessed her computer from my car. While still listening to music. :cool:
 
Chuck it into my laptop bag and make a call on my AT&T Captivate ... enjoying the fact that it's crystal clear.

2) My Apple Stock keeps going up...

3) Soon Apple will come to their senses and release a new model so I can replace this piece of crap.

Truly multitasked - wow we both open an app and are right where we left off but yours continues to run and uses more battery!!!

Or, if your app hasn't been updated to support multitasking yet- wow, you open up your MSN app and it logs in again, making you wait!

Wifi Hotspot - which I assume you pay monthly for....

Er, you can close backgrounded apps on Android if you choose to. Why do you think that opened apps are stuck open forever? :confused:
And yes, I can open 'over 60 apps' on my Android phone because it automatically kills previously opened apps to free up RAM. (Yes, Android has smart multitasking like any other mobile OS) Not sure why I would want to but yeah. Why do you think there's an 'app limit' on Android devices?
And my Android phone gets similar battery life than my iPhone4 (one day of heavy usage).

Somebody's been feeding you bad information. Or maybe you're just a troll. idk.

For me? RedLaser- found a store half a mile away selling the same Blu-ray player I found in Best Buy for $50 less.
 
Lighted magnifying app. That sounds pretty cool...

The flashlight apps are actually pretty good too.

The video is super. Now if I could just stream my videos straight to my Apple TV..
