You're right. I personally think that he's one of the most dedicated guy in AppleByte forum.

Now lemme list mine as well.

1. Productivity - GoodReader ($0.99) allows you to view almost all the popular files on your iPhone (Without the editing feature like QuickOffice).

2. Social Networking - Facebook, Twitter, IM+ (Try out IM lite if you don't wanna spend so much on this as they're almost the same), Skype and Whats App ($0.99)

3. Reference - Dictionary.com and WeDict (No longer in the App Store if I'm not mistaken)

4. Lifestyle - CineApps which helps you keep track of all the showtimes in most of the cinemas in Malaysia

5. News - Engadget, Eurosport, CNET, CNN, Time Mobile, NYTimes and Y! Finance

6. Games - Doodle Jump and Fruit Ninja are my recent favourites ($0.99 each). lol

Those without prices are FREE!
See, iPhone is more than just a gaming device. It can be a very productive tool which helps you in your daily life.

Hope it helps!

In my opinion, Apple's iBooks is no match for either GoodReader or ReaddleDocs or even AirSharing Pro. Why?

Although iBooks has a beautiful bookshelf layout, Its too slow and lack of many features.
The moment the PDF files opens, you can choose to view the file in either portrait or landscape mode.
In portrait mode, you need to zoom in and pan around in order for you to view clear text, which is very inconvenient.
It seems to be better in landscape mode. Of course you need to zoom in too, but you don't need to pan around.
However, its very troublesome when you wanna to go to the next page as its somehow more difficult to swipe to the left/right to go the next/previous page because you already zoomed in. And once you get to the next page, you need to zoom in again =.=''

Any of the three I mentioned above does way better, especially GoodReader and ReaddleDocs.

Of course the best is to rotate and view files in landscape mode.
You can simply zoom in until the text are clear enough and lock it so that the screen won't move diagonally (GoodReader's feature). Just scroll upwards or downwards to view the rest.
If you find the text too small, you can use the text reflow feature (GoodReader & ReaddleDocs) which converts the entire PDF file into pure text, where you can adjust the font type, size and colour (Day and Night mode) which you want. Oh and, you can lock the screen orientation manually too. iBooks does that too (By pressing the Home button twice and swipe to the right), but its only in Portrait mode. GoodReader and ReaddleDocs do not have the brightness control feature as shown in iBooks.

As for performance, GoodReader and ReaddleDocs are significantly faster than iBooks at start up as well as viewing large PDF files. They support more file formats such as the popular pictures, music and video formats, and most importantly, Microsoft Office documents (Word, Excel and Powerpoint in both 03-07 & 08 version).
GoodReader and ReaddleDocs claim that they have written the app using their own algorithm which enable users to open a 100MB file without any lags & crashes.
Both have other features such as Email files, Organize files in folders, Zip them, Password protection, etc.
Files can be transferred through USB and WiFi for both apps.

Note that the comparison is made on a non-jailbroken 16GB iPhone 3GS Maxis set, and performances vary on an iPhone 4 or iPhone 3G/iPhone.
If you plan to read a lot of text files in one go, you're recommended to view it on an iPad or a laptop.
Hope this helps =)

3GS or 4?
Same here, my 3GS's battery goes down very fast when playing NFS Shift, Asphalt 5 and other graphic intensive games.
My friends often borrow from me in uni and they use Facebook, Twitter, Eurosport and some games like Doodle Jump, Crash Kart, Tap Tap 3 and Bejeweled2.
When I got it back my phone's battery drop 30% =.=''

Hey,

How is iPhone 4's speaker quality compared to 3GS?
With the volume increased by 100% in iTunes.
I heard thats not much different as its impossible to enhance the quality due to the slimmer design.

Thanks.

You've been an iPhone user for so long d huh. Haha
I guess the antennagate isn't really an issue after all.
