Fave app for ipod

Still in love with my 1st gen ipod touch. In fact, I think it is probably my all-time favourite piece of technology. Beyond its core functions of web browsing, email, mp3, video and photos there are so many different apps available so I'm constantly finding new uses for it.

I don't play a lot of games but VirtualPool is great for occasions when you just need to fill time.

Along with my own mp3 collection, I listen to Last.fm and Tunein Radio. FileMagnet is really useful for transferring documents, pdfs etc from my computer. The Facebook app seems to work really well and my latest download, Tube Deluxe (in anticipation of a forthcoming trip to London) is a work of genius. And best of all, most of these apps are cheap and many are absolutely free. The Tube app, for example, set me back 59p.

My only gripe is that my ipod doesn't seem to work with the FON network and neither BT nor Apple seem to be able to sort this issue out.

Do you have an app you would like to recommend?

I didn't know one could get App's for Ipod's. I have a nano, I listen to music and that's it.

The apps are for iPod Touch, which ais basically an iPhone without the phone.

My fave app is possibly StarWalk, which uses the tilt and compass so that you can point it at the sky and see which constallations you're looking at. Great for late night walks on the beach...

Orange Wednesdays is pretty good for deciding what to go see at the cinema.

And Hipstamatic is great fun, and a good replacement for all my old toy film cameras
