While we're all anxiously awaiting the next wonderful app for our wonderful IT's, it is refreshing to see that we are WAY ahead of some folks.

Take, for example, the iPhone user... in my daily email blast from ZDNet the headline story is by Jason O'Grady talking about an iPhone software wishlist.

Highlighting, here are some of the apps on the list (with X's to mark added to show were we already have such s/w):

Airfoil for iPhone (I don't know what this is.... do we have it?)
X Blogging client
X Radio client
X RSS reader
X Remote control application
X IM client
X Password manager
X Mileage/MPG calculator
A better Stocks application
X A better Weather application (10-day forecasts, radar, alerts)
Flight tracker (with real-time data from FlightStats.com?)
Package tracker (supporting all major carriers, with alerts)

They want these things, but we already have them!!

I already love my little toy... now I'm feeling even better about choosing it over the slick-looking iPhone/iTouch.

Hooray for Nokia and HOORAY for the amazing developers/users in THIS GROUP.

Cheers,
DF
