5 Favorite Applications (for iTouch/Phone)
I’ve only been playing with my iTouch for about a week, so I’ve not used toooo many applications.
The following are the five I like most so far.
[ C L I C K H E R E F O R T O P 5 G A M E S ]
Unfortunately, since the App Store sucks, I will not be providing links. Just search.
#1 – Google Voice
Go figure, another Google app on my top 1, what can I say? Given you have a Google Voice account, you have access to your free SMS, voicemail, and connect calls to your phones. Sorry guys, only installable through Cydia (Jailbroke iPods only)!

#2 – NESynth
NES-sounding piano or NES controller. Very fun to play the tunes from your old games, or transform new songs/game themes into this 8-bit genre.

#3 – Guitar Toolkit
*: Unfortunately, I’ve not been able to try out the tuner in this app. (I think this is the app I’m thinking of… :/)
Other than that, this app features a fretboard showing scales, a metronome, and chord database (including playback). It allows you to change the tuning of the guitar or bass to anything.

#4 – Colloquy
Multi-server IRC Client, supports auto-connect, auto-join, auto-identify, and bouncing to other Colloquy clients on Mac. Doesn’t run in the background unfortunately… but you can always get Backgrounder from Cydia.

#5 – Skype
Place calls to phones *as long as you have a wifi connection*. This can potentially turn your iTouch into an iPhone. Pair this with Google Voice for awesome functionality. Unfortunately, you cannot receive calls if you do not have a Skype number, and calling requires a subscription or credit.
