Okay, I’m nearly wetting my underoos in eager anticipation of the iPhone App store tomorrow. The iTunes 7.7 software update is already available in preparation for all the iPhone Apps.
Lifehacker has a great list of free (and awesome) apps that will be available.
Which free apps am I most excited about?
- Remote - controlling your iTunes library via local wifi
- Google Mobile - think “Quicksilver” for your iPhone (written by the same guy who wrote Quicksilver”
- NetNewsWire - RSS reader that syncs between a desktop app, a web app, and now my iPhone
via Lifehacker
Personally I’m most excited about Remote, it would make my iPhone the perfect remote for our Apple TV.
I expect a lot of these apps to replace webapps I have shortcuts to on my home screen, like meebo and whatnot.
Also, I think it’s going to be hard for my girlfriend and myself to avoid buying Bejeweled.

Voip on our iPhone @ $0.06/minute
This will definitely come in handy this August when I go to Rome, Italy.

Can’t get the REMOTE to work.
Got as far as iTunes saying,
“Your Remotes is now able to control iTunes”
Then I click “OK”
Then nothing.

Never mind fixed it.
1. Enable Sharing on iTunes
2. Go to Firewall (In Security on System Prefs)
3. There are 3 radio buttons, select the 3rd one
4. Below the box, click the + icon, a window will appear. Select iTunes, it will default to Allow Incoming Connections.

Find that little “Hole in the Wall” restaurant, that you would otherwise overlook.
Just give it a shake.
