A couple of us were discussing about IM applications (dun remember which thread oredi). Anyhow, just in case anyone's looking to get IM+ there's a price drop from USD9.99 to 4.99

@jonest,
QuickOffice was going at USD12.99 instead of 19.99 last week. Our darling Mod, davidgary73 has it so U could check with him

For those of U who wants to know how much batt U haf left for whatever U intend to do, check out BatteryStatus. It's FOC, available at iTunes App Store

Hi All...

Further to davidgary73's post on AlarmTunes, there's another FOC alternative to it called MusicAlarm.

@tengyeow,
Can block certain calls ah?! hMm.. I've not come across an app like that but just in case U don't find an app like that, perhaps U could just silent that particular number [put a custom ringtone to that number]; that way, U won't hear the phone ring and won't end up picking the phone

@gunnerstkd,
I've AirSharing but I haven't quite gotten to using it. I'll test with a powerpoint file tonight and get back to U [that's if I can even find a proper powerpoint file on my computer]

@nokia2003,
Er.. U super slow lah - it's been out for eons *yawn* but thanks for the information anyways. 1.66Mbps d/load speed is indeed v v v v fast !

@gunnerstkd,
I've just tried reading a PPS file on AirSharing - the animations go away, and U read it as full page. What you see is originally 2 slides and as U can tell, the format did lari a bit

@jackhammer84,
Y don't U check if perhaps U need a passcode before the 2 connects?! Ah well.... read up to see what the developer has said. I was lucky cause I got AirSharing when it was $0.00

@nokia2003,
Eh.. check out the books by 'Six Voices' - nice interface and pretty good content on some of them too d next time U can't sleep

@gunnerstkd,
I was browsing the App store the other day and did come across a couple of apps which were $0.00 but I didn't take much notice of that, perhaps U could just go through it thoroughly and hope to find something that suits U

Just tried with PDF with AirSharing - it's typically the same lah.

@gunnerstkd,
Y don't U try with a smaller file? Ah well... there will be limitations to $0.00 apps

@Urban,
As gunnerstkd mentioned TomTom hasn't released their Asia version. They've almost covered the entire world except this region

And averagely, it's about US$80 not US$100++ Just do a search on the App Store for TomTom and you'll see all the different available maps and its respective prices

@fuiyo,
Both typically serves the same functions. It's a mater of preference. I too have both IM but I use BeejiveIM as my primary IM on my iPhone

@princess_autumn87,
Do a search, you'll find several - am going out for a meeting so can't search for u right now but definitely the app you're looking for is available on the App Store.

File explorer: meaning?! Using ur iPhone as a very expensive thumb drive? If so, that is also available

@afiqkhairi,
If you're in Australia, check out iiQuota. There's also separate apps available for the different respective telcos in Australia. If you're in Malaysia, tadak!

@nokia2003,
Thanks for the update but uh what's meta chat? I did a search on what meta is but er i still fail to understand the jargon *gulps*

@bebibear,
So WhatApp is similar to Ping!? I notice a lot of other similar applications to Ping! mushrooming up recently.

@dinozilla,
I don't know about WhatApps but Ping! keeps us connected to the server at all times. Yes it is onli limited to people with iPhones but my group of friends I hang out with are all using the iPhone hence we usually Ping! one another, EXCEPT for those on the i2G

In fact, it's quite a refreshing change. Speaking of which, I should start using BeejiveIM on my iPhone

Go check out the Ping! thread to find out more information.

@psyeo,
I don't see a need having so many of the same kind of application - will just stick with Ping!

@mr.ngiau,
There quite a few applications of such nature; mostly paid apps. Just do a quick browse and you'll find a few:-

1) Quickoffice Mobile
2) Documents To Go

@dinozilla,
A Ping! message isn't *that* big lah; no need to be so kiasu; it's not like ur writing a storybook or something. If you have a data plan, it should be fine; if u don't have then well, it does get v expensive paying; having said that, IM+ or BeeJiveIM also utilises your data services.

Also, there's less spamming on Ping! unlike on IMs

@dinozilla,
Yes but isn't that what we said from the v beginning?!

@CLL,
Am quite surprise a couple of our M'sian users are having issues with WhatApps cause it works fine on mine.

So, does Ping! work fine on urs? In fact, I found a 'long-lost' friend on WhatApps last night *smiles*

@fylon,
Apparently some friends of mine have problems/issues with their WhatApps app too; i'd been on it for at least a week or so and there's no issues on mine

@ZhaoYun,
Er.. U mean the app is now not free?! I got it when it was FOC though.
