I had this post buried into my blogger draft, it's impending to be posted. Looking back, tt's more than past 10 months now since i've got the iPhone but it never occurred to me a hint of diminishing adoration for this gadget, it's like, i get even more attached to it each and everyday that passes by, (sounds pathetic hehehe) but allow me to vent my addiction to this heaven-sent Apple Gadget. In lieu with this, i came up with my top 10 favorite apps of 2010. These apps have inadvertently changed my perception and behavior in the smartphone computing: with the downsides and upsides, nonetheless.
1. iBooks
Have i been obvious lately that im really into books? This will probably the last app i'm gonna delete given the choice between FB app and iBooks. I feel like i have my own digital library with the ease of tap and swoosh of the finger in selecting from a vast range of books. I don't highly recommend it for you to get, it's actually a "must-have".
One last, i mentioned in my post before that you could incorporate a built-in dictionary to this app, without having to jump to another dictionary app. Check it here.
I stumbled this app courtesy of Dilbert.com, yeah, Scott Adams' website and blog introduced me to Newser, if i want to digest the headlines from all the pipes of newscast, i'd strike this icon to launch the concise current events. Their blurb: "Read Less, Know More", certainly holds true.
3. FaceBook for the iPhone
Hell yes! i confess, there's no hour in a day that i didn't launch this app. I experienced how this app has evolved into a strong and stable program. Facebooking is so dominant now that i am more into it than checking my Gmail. The temptation is irresistible, Indeed!!!
4. Do it Tomorrow
I'm a fan of productivity app, i love this due to its simplicity and direct-to-the-point usability. Tap and write your entries of TODOs of the day and it will automate itself to move to the next day incase it was undone.

You can also customize the level of importance of the TODO list. Somewhat minimalist, that's my overall impression why other TODO apps couldn't match it.
5. Inception the App
I was amazed and still is, when i discovered this free app. I was also a sleep addict, and this program is exactly what i've been looking for, so my body could induced to dreamland. Remember i used the word "induced", suffice to say that this will make you really enter slumber whether you like it or not.

Don't forget to plug-in your authentic iPhone earphone. (lol!!!)
6. 3D Wallpapers
In the realms of 3-dimensional backgrounds, you better grab this app. I'm tired with the built-in wallpapers, so if you're the OC when it comes to how your phone looks like, lest you're proud and high with your self-portrait of somebody else's faces, it's high-time you choose your background and screen-lock images using this application.

7. RMaker
I think i graduated with the customizing of ringtones activity back in my Nokias and Samsung, however, it still feels good to pick the ringtone of your choosing; say you want to use one of the songs in your iPod list, then this app will certainly help. It's a bit tricky though, you have to use your iTunes SW to synch and make the processed ringtone appear later under the Settings -> Sounds. Then aiwa, you can set it as your desired ringer.

8. Wordweb
A dictionary, lexicon, a reference. I think this is more comprehensive than those paid dictionary apps. I just so love this, it complements esp whenever im stuck with serious mental block or simply grasping for the right adjective to fire up.
9. USB Disk
One of the pitfalls of iPhone is the challenge when it comes to data transfers (as in usb plug and play with any sort of file, you could drop and drag anything you like eh, so long the capacity is not over it).

This app has lessen the burden, promise! As long as your iTunes is up, with your data cable connected to your iPhone, you can drag and drop files. There might be easier ways out there to transfer files, but these apps are paid. Unless you don't wanna settle for less, then go ahead and swipe ur card.
10. Chikka
I do am a Filipino, and if you're familiar with the Chikka Messenger program, this is the mirror program for the iPhone. If you're abroad and wanna text your loved ones for free. Go ahead and DL this. If ur in the Philippines and just want to make tipid of your load cuz ur not postpaid, then go and grab this still. He he he.

Sorry folks, i don't do games a lot, taz why i didn't enter such likes. But just in case u wanna know how do i fare with games on the iPhone, i love playing before, NFS (need for speed), that was in iOS ver 4.1 where i had it jailbroken. Now, i'm settled with Ninjump, Endless Race and making my eyelids bored to death by playin Sudoku2. Angry Birds? - the infamous top grosser?, it has always irritated me since day 1.
My ultimate dream app, for the next year 2011, or should we say, my dream iPhone feat that hopefully t'wil turn to reality is the personalized finger swiping - where you can register your fingerprints so that your iPhone could only respond to it whenever you do the swooshing or tapping or pinching with your fingers. Call it illustrious, but ain't it secured?
Finally, i'd like to say my thanks to Bernard for inching me to buy the iPhone3GS, for cautiously warning me that it's so temptingly delicious and addictive. I have no regrets letting my wad go to this revolutionary gizmo.
PS: it's in my head: "i wish Santa could drop me an iPad" or the 13-incherMacbook Air.... lol!!!
