Does anyone here uses a password manager?

I've been a Roboform user for several years on PC and most of my passwords are random characters.

So far the only option I've found for the iTouch is 1Password. Unfortunately, to import Roboform's passcards to 1Password for iPhone (and iTouch) is impossible directly. It has to be imported to 1Password for Mac THEN synced with the iTouch.

Any other password managers out there? More specifically one that can import Roboform's passcards?

Are there any good FPS games for the touch? Now quite addicted with Fieldrunners and 21 Pro (blackjack).

Xiangqi - Chinese Chess which sells only for $0.99 (cheapest) has a 3-star rating, better than 2 others more expensive ones.

Another has a higher rating (3.5), Chinese Chess Master, but 4 times the price - $3.99

Whew! Finished playing Hero of Sparta. For those who can afford it, do buy! It's very nice thumbup.gif Just that somehow towards the end, the level of difficulty becomes rather disappointing. Seems that along with the upgrades of the weapons, the enemies did not improve much. Even felt some were more useless than previous enemies sweat.gif

dats because ur weapon is getting better n better.
Anyway h.o.s is quite repetitive. I recommend zombie attack, orions, and pirates.

That's my point. With the weapons getting better, they should have made the enemies better too.

Those 3 games, huh? I'll look into it tongue.gif Actually more keen to find an FPS-ish game now though, is there any?

My list of applications, games not included. App names in blue are recommended for the general users. Others depends on your own needs/wants and personal preferences.

BeejiveIM - $15.99
Many say it's the best IM app out there. I went straight for it without trying other other IM apps. Works great smile.gif

Air Sharing - $4.99
Makes your iPod touch a storing device through WiFi. You can only add/remove files via your computer. iPod touch can only store the files and also view selected file types.

WifiTrak - $0.99
Better than the built-in wireless network detector, though those undetected by the built-in ones would most probably not be of any use (insufficient signal strength for a decent connection).

1Password - FREE
eWallet - $9.99
mSecure - $2.99

Password managers. Personally I prefer 1Password as it has an auto-fill feature in its built-in browser. Even at sites that it fails to auto-fill, a column will show on top with your log-in information. However, its built-in browser does not sync with Safari's cookies and all. It also doesn't support multiple pages IINM.
eWallet and mSecure seems quite alike to me, but I never really got to use much of it as I'm just too used to auto-filling (Roboform on my PC for years now). These two allows you to keep other information such as credit card information, bank accounts information, etc. encrypted. 1Password is only for website log-ins.

Graphing Calculator - FREE
A 2D graphing calculator. It's decent, though I feel kind of limited as its y variable can only be linear.

PCalc Lite - FREE
A more comprehensive calculator than the built-in one.

Wiki Mobile - $2.99
Pretty obvious - A Wikipedia app. There's a number of free ones out there, though from the reviews I just went for this.

WordBook English Dictionary & Thesaurus - $3.99
A pretty good dictionary app. Pronunciation available offline. Two other variations of better pronunciation available via Internet.

myLite - FREE
Flashlight - FREE
Torch - FREE

Variations of flashlight apps. myLite and Flashlight offers several variations of lights. Personally I prefer myLite for its ease of use. Prefer Torch when all I want is just a white light.

Crazy Pumpkin - FREE
What its name says. A crazy pumpkin.

Notespark - $4.99
Syncs notes through the Internet. Able to view, edit and delete on the iPod touch. Synced notes will be available offline. Connection to their server may be slow at times (I believe this is Streamyx's issue). Decent, but probably not really worth the price.

iHandy Carpenter - $1.99
Bought it 'cause I thought it's pretty cool. Has 5 tools: plumb bob, bubble level bar, steel protractor and steel ruler. Wonder if it'll actually come in to practical use one day.. laugh.gif

FullBrowser - FREE
A web browser that displays websites full-screen (tap to show address bar and bottom back, forward and refresh buttons). Doesn't share cookies with Safari though, and no multi-page.

Free Memory 1.4 - $0.99
Frees up memory (RAM) of your iPod touch when it is below 20MB. Works pretty well.

WritePad - FREE
A decent text editor.

Google Mobile App - FREE
Basically a shortcut to Google's variation of services.

PayPal - FREE
PayPal on-the-go. Rather limited, probably better to just log-in at Safari.

iXpenseIt - $4.99 (Lite available)
Balance - FREE

Expense trackers. Haven't utilized them blush.gif

AppSniper - $0.99
Tracks apps/games that are on sale and more.

Also, another app that I will be getting soon would be either Jaadu VNC, Jaadu RDP, or LogMeIn Ignition. All paid apps, the Jaadu apps cost $24.99 whereas LMI Ingition costs $29.99. For remote desktop smile.gif

Note: Prices are as of February 8, 2009. App information are not guaranteed accurate and other information are solely personal opinions.

LOL. Tell me about it! I probably don't even have as much apps as you do, but I can't really be bothered to arrange em. If they had made it easier to arrange via iTunes, then I'll most probably have done it long ago laugh.gif

Games, huh? I have Fieldrunners, iShoot (played only once), Quantamlights (no idea how the hell to play lol), 21 Pro, Hero of Sparta, Bomberline, Asphalt4, Fastlane, Photo Spot, SlotZ, Rolando, LightBike and DoodleKids! laugh.gif

Favorite would be Hero of Sparta, followed by Fieldrunners. Play 21 Pro quite often too. The racing games, I really really suck at em :-\ Shouldn't have bought them in one go laugh.gif Rolando is rather challenging and frustrating. Likely to get Brother In Arms soon.

How was Asphal4 compared to Fastlane? I rather found Fastlane kinda hard to play too.

There's a lot of feedback regarding Hero of Sparta and Brother In Arms, might consider getting it later but it's too pricey...
*
I didn't play much of both, cause I found out how much I suck at all of em racing games, LOL. Asphalt4 offers more variation of controls, so I suppose it may take longer to get bored of since you can try out the other controls after you've mastered one. Regarding level of difficulty, you gotta ask someone else who's not as noob as I am sweat.gif

I'm sure there are those with both games, probably can ask them which one is more of a value buy. Else you can wait for my feedback probably at the end of this week tongue.gif

That's for JB'd only right?

Location Services under Settings > General. Also when launch Google App, there'll be a small box prompting "Google" would like to use your current location - Don't Allow or OK

Added on February 10, 2009, 3:31 pmBlah, after contacting Jaadu's and LMI's support team to clear a few questions and ask for the comparison between the two sides, and reading the recent reviews on LMI Ignition, I'm even more undecided on which to get now doh.gif

I updated it the first time I connected my iPod touch to my laptop. Is there supposed to be a problem? Pocket God requires 2.2.1 to run on iPod touch.


Added on February 11, 2009, 9:34 pmPosting this via iPod touch controlling my laptop with LogMeIn Ignition. The keyboard's auto spelling, double space for fullstop and several other special features not working here sad.gif
