Check out Shazam (another freebie). How many times do you hear a song on the radio, TV, etc and wonder what the name/artist is? Shazam "listens" (for ~30 sec) and returns the information to you. Of course it also make it very easy for you to turn around and purchase the selection via iTunes (smart eh?), but it is very cool none-the-less.

While not an app...Weather Underground has a page for the Iphone. They prompt you to go to it in your safari browser when you go to the main site. Choose United States, then drill down to Virgin Islands-Cruz Bay.

Excellent Radar, and decent forecast.

WinAdmin is a great App. use for Remote Desktop Sessions. It saves all the user names/passwords if you want it to. With just one click, I am on my work server. It makes a computer useless!!!!

Games, games, and more games. Bejeweled 2, and Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D are 2 of my favorites but they raise hell with my battery life..

Somebody mentioned Shazam on this thread so I downloaded it.. It's truly what our great-grandparents would have considered 'magic.'

Thanks Pete, that's consistant with what I was seeing here too. With technology this new/hot it is probably pretty close to fixed pricing...
