Does anyone have either an Apple iPod Touch or an iPhone? What do you think of them? What are some of the apps that you use on them?

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Quite flawed
I think they're fantastic. I wouldn't have gotten one, except it came free with the number of minutes I needed anyway. But I've found it to be absolutely invaluable, especially since I moved to London shortly afterwards, and the Maps feature was an absolute lifesaver. Having Email on the go is useful too, since we often get emailed about things at the last minute, and checking it once a day isn't enough.
Other apps that I use:
Facebook, like most people.
Wikipanion, which is just Wikipedia for mobile.
Calendar, which I now use instead of a paper diary.
Bible, which is so convenient for reading on the tube.
Daily devotions by Spurgeon.
A couple of London transport apps.
To Do list.
Shopping list.
Medical Abbreviations.
Diagnose the Disease (game).
My O2, useful for checking my minutes and texts balance.
Amazon UK, which I haven't used yet because my password has a character that's not typable on the phone.
Starbucks, which I haven't found a purpose for yet.
Style.com, useful when bored.
The Sims 3.
Some RPGs e.g. vampires, ninjas, that sort of thing.

Most of my friends have iPhones. They usually ask to use my Moto Droid when they need to make calls though.

I find it's mostly OK. Doesn't work on the tube or in hospitals, like most phones. But it works pretty much everywhere else. It's sturdy too - I've dropped it a few times, onto hard ground, and it just blinks a bit and starts working again

I have an iPod Touch and I absolutely adore it. That thing is freaking awesome. I have to upgrade my software to get new apps, though, which has really been a pain in the butt.

I've done that with my iPod. It's been dropped on concrete and it still works. lolIt's sturdy too - I've dropped it a few times, onto hard ground, and it just blinks a bit and starts working again

They rally 'round the family
That's no problem, just switch carriers. In fact, just get skype on it. Then you can bypass cellphone reception problems completely, and just call people wherever there's an internet connection.
I have an iTouch. It works great, except I broke the on/off button. Other then that, I love it. I've been toying with the idea of learning to do some iPhone programming to sell and app in the app store (duno if I'll actually DO it, but it'd be cool).
Agreed. I usually wait until someone releases a fix for the new update. In need my Cydia.

You don't eat a peacock until it's cooked.
I have an iPhone and I love it. Granted, the battery life could be better but that's really my only gripe at the moment. I don't have a ton of apps for it but I do use a few like Facebook, GPS, and U2 tour announcements.
