Alot of surprises (new Snow Leopard OS, $29 to upgrade!; iPhone 3G @ $99 and 3G S-type @ $199 ) and some let-downs (mostly by AT&T who won't have certain services before summer). 3 minute re-cap @ Gizmodo

The Girl Vs. The World: Andressa Soares
Body like wooooow. The extra "o's" are so necessary. But I'm not down with women going through all these unnecessary steps just to look good. Unless you're into asses that look like stair steps. I actually learned something from this video.

Free Superhero iPhone Apps: Peter Parker Edition
So in a somewhat recent development, I switched to an iPhone. It's been pretty cool thus far minus little things like mass texting and text forwarding, etc.
Anyway, I'm going to tell you what apps you need to upgrade it to a Superhero-level iPhone. You know, able to do ANYTHING you may need it to. Saving lives, whipping out weapons when necessary, finding places to eat, alladat. For free! Hence "Peter Parker" status because it's a recession out... according to whom you ask.
1. Bump - I've been bigging this up since I found out about it. Essentially, you and another iPhone user bump hands or iPhones to trade contact info. It's not stalker-ish because you need to give permission for the info to trade. A very inventive use of the iPhone's motion sensor and a very cool party trick for your non-iPhone having friends.
2. Shazam - THIS SHIT RIGHT HERE?!?!?! Just put your iPhone up to a speaker or microphone, wait a few seconds and the program will try to identify what song is playing live. Handy for when you're catching that new mix and there's that ONE song that made it worth the listen.
3. iFirstAid - You never know when you'll need to apply a Heimlich maneuver after your homeboy scarfs down that last chili dog. If you're not already knowledgeable about what to do in an emergency and 911 can't get there on time, here's the app for that.
4. urbanspoon - this is fun even though some people will wonder about why you have it. Don't worry, not everyone is meant to be ahead of the curve; this is why YOU have the iPhone. If you can't decide where you want to eat out simply shake the phone and it'll choose a place based on criteria (food type, expense, location). Might save your date and any chance of being the go-to person for the out-of-town crowd.
5. wikipanion - Wikipedia. If you don't know what that is, read the sentence again.
6. Mint.com - A banking software client that tracks your balances, spending budgets and even ways to save if you're feeling lucky. Only problem is that it only updates your balance after a certain period but it beats having to run to an ATM every time.
7. Currency - Currency Converter for the jetsetters.
8. Translator - Another one for the jetsetter set. If you can type, you can use this. However, a voice option would utterly KILL the app game.
9. Yelp! - It's the mobile version of the Yelp! website. Great resource for finding things to do in any given city.
10. Wi-Fi Finder - If you're the type to stay tethered to your Mac or Dell (but WHY?), this is an invaluable resource. Traces anything from Starbucks to smaller vendors.
Bonus: Lightsaber - This is more of a party gag than anything. Best used when sneaking up on unsuspecting prank victims.
There's plenty of iPhone apps worth getting, some free but buggy and some you have to pay for but definitely worth the purchase. Do YOU have any preferred applications?
