Default a less crowded time to visit the APPLE Store

And yes, the sales people are wonderful. Always ready to answer questions, show you how to do something, or show you any products you want to see -- but never any pressure to buy anything. I guess that's why one reason people feel so comfortable frequenting Apple stores.
There are times when the Apple Stores are less crowded.

You have to be bold, quick, and experienced.
Don't worry about your 'do' either, you'll be dressed for the occasion.
We will stick with the crowds for now, but do avoid malls during the last 6 weeks of the year.

Hope there's an app for preventing this or helping with recovery and apprehension

A number of the EA Sports/Games apps are "on sale" for .99

Many of these are regularly 2.99-9.99

Includes Scrabble, Tiger Woods Golf, NFL Madden, Tetris, Sim City, Trivial Pursuit.

Some are IPAD only, others are Universal (iPad and iPhone).

Don't know how long the sale is good for or which are particularly good apps. Just an FYI.

Here's a new free app:

Auryn Ink -- it's a free hand watercolor drawing/painting program; I'm no artist but it was fun to play with and produced some nice results.

Another recent freebie is "Me and I" ... this app lets you take any photo or image file and duplicate any portion of it. You then twist and turn to manipulate the symmetrical image. It can produce some very interesting effects (3 eyes, chicken neck,etc). A fun app. You can save the manipulated image to another file name.

Have fun!!!

How do you rate an App, or write a review?

Absolutely hooked on Angry Birds and Cut the Rope. You can now Video call with Skype (Iphone 4) to any Skype users on any PC which is very cool

You can print wirelessly from your Ipad: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/printcentral-for-ipad/id366020849?mt=8
This app might save you the need to buy a need printer as older printers are not Ipad wireless capable. Check the reviews to see if the app is something that would meet your needs.

OK I have a computer, a kindle and I just purchased an iphone; I'm trying to figure out how it works and I'm loving it. Now I'm hearing about Ipads and I'm wondering why I need one. I perked up when I heard that there are apps for artists that allows you to sketch on one. Is this true? What are the benefits of owning an Ipad? Thanks

Default Free Apps

Thanks for this thread. I just discovered Unblock Me and I have been addicted for the past few days. Never thought I would become a gamer. BTW does Whistle work in Canada? Thanks for all your info.

Default Angry birds

OK I give up. Can someone tell me what the object of Angry Birds is. I can't figure out what I'm suppose to do. Managed to figure out Cut the Rope though! Feel free to PM so we don't hijack the thread. Thanks

A long as you're on a WiFi connection, Whistle will work anywhere in the world. We just returned from Germany and I used Whiste all the time to call friends and family in the US. You might also want to check out Google Voice, which also lets you make free phone calls to the US.

Cheers..... Mike

Hi Barefoot.... I'm here, actually in TV finally!

To rate an app, just go back into the app store and go to the app you want to rate...just like when you downloaded it the first time. Scroll down and you'll see "Write a review". Take that option and you can give the app 1 to 5 stars and write and few comments for future users.

Happy rating.....

Thumbs up Flight Tracker Pro

I recommend "Flight Tracker Pro"..It cost $9.99 but is worth the price.
You can track any flight in detail, (e.g. Time left, Time of arrival, how
far the flight has traveled, how far to go, altitude, speed, gate of
departure, gate of arrival, % on time, % late by 15 min., etc.etc.)
It will also show a map of the flight path and where the plane is at that
time.
