What's your dream app for iPhone?

I just got a slingbox, so i would really love to see a slingplayer for the iPhone... It seems logical that a web-based version could be created.

I'd also like an iPhone version of Salling Clicker.
 
tickle me elmo app

i had an idea for an app. its for the kids and the not so much a kid. it would be a tickle-me-elmo app. it would show a picture of elmo and whenever you rub him with your finger he would laugh and the iphone would vibrate.
 
I would like a doplar radar application to check to see if I'm in the line of a tornado or thunderstorm, ECT...
 
I would love to see an app that can route my calls via Wifi like the T-Mobile UMA so that I can call anyone I want for free.

And also be able to dialup with my iphone. AKA, use it as a modem. Be nice to surf the web using the 3G network on my MacBook.
 
Copy and Paste (not an app. I know)

-Radio streamer like my old Nokia (used it more than I though I would)
-A cool add on hardware piece like the ipod has and software that allows you to connect your camera to your iphone, snap pictures and be able to see the results in seconds. Would benefit in situations where the camera's screen isn't sufficient enough to show details.
-Video Conferencing. I don't think I would use this, but I like the idea
-An app that allows me to connect my iphone to my SUBARU WRX. It will allow me to view live readings of my car such as Boost, MPG, Airflow etc. For us car guys, it would be awesome to have something like this which has cool gauges and other options.
-An application that allows me to use my iphone as a alarm. Some how, my iphone can connect to my car alarm wirelessly (of course) and let me know what part of my car was touched.

-PONG
 
Unigraphics CAD viewer application for iPhone!

I'd like to see a viewer / analysis app for the iPhone that works with Unigraphcs 3D cad. That would be sweet!
Then I could show all those other punk engineers why their blackberry sucks!

:cool:
 
slingplayer slingplayer slingplayer!!!!!

if their application is accepted then i will have died and gone to heaven.

if I had a daughter that would be one app I wouldn't let her buy lmao... doubt Apple would allow that one
 
Cool app for me would be some app which justifies me playing about on it so much.
I'm forever taking it out of my pocket to slide the screen unlock, and just play with the touch screen (this is how touch screen should be!).
I think maybe a game (monkey ball could be darn addictive!), and some kind of file storage/editing app.
I love the idea of having a system to keep track of notes for university, but it would need to work with a desktop counterpart so that I could print it all off (yes yes, we hand an appendix in so it would all be need).
For me, the iPhone needs no killer app.
Would be awful nice if it could actually get me up in the morning though (the alarms sound tame on the iphone).
 
there is an option for this

Exactly! I have been an eWallet user for years. I don't have a PDA anymore but I still use the desktop app for storing web ID/PWs, account numbers, etc.

We have so many accounts, web accounts, software license keys, VINs, SSNs of the kids...just way too much to keep in my head.

I was shocked when I found out that my latest and greatest Verizon cell phone could do 3D games and video but there were no basic local database applications.

I still think this is could be a killer app for the iPhone. This should have been one of the included apps.
