  • Vocalia ($8) is a speech recognition tool for the iPhone that can recognize English, French, and German. It allows users to simply speak a contacts name and it will then browse through the users contact list and find the name closest to the one spoken. The 2.0 release has expanded the voice command options and now allows users to search through their music library by speaking an artists name. The update has also added the ability to open Safari bookmarks though a voice command.

  • Walt Disney World Notescast ($2) is a mobile guide to the Walt Disney World theme park in Orlando, Florida. The application includes more than 200 pages of information which covers attractions, resorts, tickets, tours, history, and more. Each of the four theme parks; Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney's Animal Kingdom, and Disney's Hollywood Studios are covered by the guide.

  • Waterslide Extreme (free) is a game where players guide their character down massive waterslides. The game includes 9 different levels which feature 3D cityscape backgrounds and both day and night settings. As players move down the slides they have to try and collect various items and avoid obstacles while trying to keep their speed as high as possible.

  • Priceless Picks (free) allows users to share their favorite places on an interactive map. When a user wants to submit an item the software uses the built-in GPS to find the address and then lets users add text to the entry. Items can be submitted to different categories such as Entertainment, Dining, Shopping, and Priceless. Users can then view a map which shows submitted locations and the comments left with them.

  • Alarm Music ($1) can be used to set up any number of alarms using songs from their music library. Alarms can be set up to ring everyday or only on select days and users can set how long they want the snooze timer to last for each alarm. The application also allows users to turn individual alarms on and off so that they don't have to be deleted and re-entered when they are not needed.
