These apps deserve some attention…
Schmap — a straight up, pimped out, web app for anyone, anywhere. Browse over to www.schmap.com on your iPhone, or iPod Touch, and access city guides with mapped out points of interest, reviews, photos, you name it… It packs a pretty slick user interface too.
IntelliScreen — spice up your “Slide to Unlock” screen with various widgets… Rather than me go on and on, have a glance over the feature list:
IntelliScreen is beta software. Use at your own risk.

Introducing another awesome [web] app — Chris Carey’s MythTV for the iPhone! Stream recorded TV directly from your MythTV DVR to your iPhone using Mobile Safari.
MythTV for iPhone allows you to watch your TV shows on your MythTV DVR on your iPhone.
The software combines the work of many great programmers into one application. It allows you to browse your recorded shows, and look at show details. You can stream any recorded show to the iPhone wirelessly. It allows you to control your other (PC based) MythFrontend with a web-based remote control.
The technology behind it is MythTV (The Open-Source DVR), PHP for the backend, Smarty and iUI for the frontend.
You can find a demo here; using the iPhone’s web browser, of course.

Comments (8)There are at least 3 other iPhone video recorder apps available. What makes this app different: it records both sound and video. You are limited to 30 seconds of recording time with the free trial. If you’d like to record longer than 30 seconds; well, you’ll have to buy a $19.95 USD license.
iPhone Video Recorder is a powerful iPhone oriented video recorder produced by DreamCatcher. iPhone Video Recorder records audio and video to the compressed mpeg4 format, so the recording is space saving, an-hour-high-quality recording will be a file as small as 60MB. iPhone Video Recorder boasts a frame rate up to 15fps which guarantees better recording performance . With iPhone Video Recorder, recording is easy and enjoyable, you may play back the video, download it to a computer, or send it out by email as you wish.

Countless iPhone apps are released every day; some are useless, some suck, and some kick a supreme amount of ass. Onboard the ass kicking boat is HWPen — the first iPhone handwriting application.
HWPen hooks into the on-screen keyboard, and, well, you guessed it — recognizes your handwriting. It’s currently in the beta stages of development, but no doubt demonstrates true dopeness.
To install:
As always, props to Leif for the find.
Comments (5)This app is fringing awesome, for real… I just finished testing’er out and she works quite well; no doubt a must-have for your iPhone. My Icelandic explorer buddy, Leif Erikson, will say the same.
What is it?
fring™ is a mobile internet service & community that enables you to access & interact with your social networks on-the-go, make free calls and live chat with all your fring, Skype®, MSN® Messenger, Google Talk™, ICQ, SIP, Twitter, Yahoo!™ and AIM®* friends using your handset’s internet connection rather than costly cellular airtime minutes.
Bringing PC-benefits to the mobile, fring will empower you with mobility and availability as never before, integrating all contacts in to one, searchable buddy list, allowing you to see who’s online before dialing with contact availability indicators, engage in multiple conversations simultaneously, send & receive files and more.
Couldn’t have said it better myself…
Comments (14)Leif just sent another interesting news tidbit…
Dubbed BD Touch, the technology aims to leverages the network capabilities of Blu-ray players, meaning that iPhones and iPod touches could soon add to their repertoire the ability to dual as a multimedia remote for supporting Blu-ray players like the PS3.
…
In addition, BD Touch could also serve to funnel movie extras from the PS3 to the iPhone, build an iPhone-based database of a user’s movie collection, and beam iTunes Digital Copy versions of movies from Blu-ray discs to the Apple handhelds.
…
A formal announcement is expected on Thursday.
Cool!

Comments (5)Hot off the presses — Simplify Media Build 949. Several worthwhile updates have made their way into this version; so check it out…
Simplify Media enables access to your music library, and if you have any friends, theirs too — up to 30 of ‘em — wherever Wi-Fi is available.
What’s new?
Album art - this version uses Amazon Web Services to search for a match. In the future we will display the cover art already associated with the file for increased accuracy and rely on Amazon as a fallback.
Artist bios - from last.fm. These user-created bios are distributed under the GNU free document license.
Lyrics - courtesy of lyrics wiki and also user-generated and distributed under the GNU free document license.
Shuffle - select Shuffle from the top of any song list, and the tracks from an album, a genre, an artist or a playlist will be randomized for your enjoyment. It even works with the All Songs list.
Download the Simplify Media iPhone client via Nullriver’s Installer. And grab the server — for Windows or Mac — by following the source link.

Thanks, son of Erik the Red.
Comments (10)If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Case in point over at wickedpsyched.net (see source) with ongoing development of the first iPhone P2P torrent client. Based on Transmission — in my opinion, the dopest torrent client for Mac OS X — is a preliminary release of a command line (CLI) version for the iPhone.

Because we’re dealing with somewhat of a premature software release, and many improvements are likely ahead, we recommend visiting the source link — keep yourself up-to-date that way.
