Loading ...Aurora Feint, the thoroughly excellent (and free, would you believe?) game has been removed from the App Store due to privacy concerns over its Community feature, which allowed you to see which of your friends were playing the game at the same time. The concern surrounds the fact that Aurora Feint apparently uploads your entire Contacts list — unencrypted — to the developer’s server.

(No Ratings Yet) Loading ...When you Google “iPhone apps”, this website comes up as the top hit. When you view, the page, you see an offer that reminds you of MacHeist; a bundle of the “top 10 iPhone apps”, that all go for a price of $24.95, which the website calls “a steal”
However, there are quite a few interesting things about it, if you look deeper. First of all, you are required to jailbreak your iPhone to use these application, and the website does not state this on the home page or state that you cannot install the apps with the consent of Apple. Also, in order to jailbreak the iPhone, the website sells ZiPhone, a freeware jailbreaking app. Also, there are two interesting apps in the bundle; a screenshot app and a VNC app. Taking screenshots is supported in the 2.0 firmware, and there is a free VNC app in the AppStore. Hmmm.
The website also contains a lot of improper grammar, and the link to the “Live Chat” does not work. There have been customers of the website that have lost their money and not received the bundle. I advise you not to buy these applications and to avoid the website.

Mocha VNC is one of the most talked about and popular (currently Number 29 on the Top Free Apps list) free apps available in the iPhone App Store - offering a client for remotely connecting to your computer via the iPhone.
Now, in addition to the original ‘Lite’ - and free - version, there is also a Full, paid-for version. The Full version goes for $5.99.
Our good friend Dan over at What’s On iPhone has got a post up detailing what you get with the Full version, and some thoughts on whether it’s worthwhile.
For now, the Full version’s extras are pretty minimal it seems to me, but maybe these will be extended over time.
Check out Dan’s post HERE for the full comparison …

Unfortunately there’s not a lot I can say because I’ve had it installed for all of five minutes… But mobile blogging just got taken to a whole new level. I’m surenyou can expect to see a full write-up by someone here at JAiB soon enough - but for now - just know it works well enough that this whole post was done from my iPhone… Not a laptop in sight!

Alright - since right now we have to pay out of pocket for everything we review around here from the App Store (Apple fix this please) … sorry if you don’t see a lot of reviews coming out of the "pay-for" section. Unfortunately money isn’t growing on trees around my house, but if I end up buying something off of the App Store - you’re going to know - and you’re going to get 100% is it worth it knowledge.
So, lets get started looking at a nifty little word search game for the iPhone called Wordfind by On-Core. Now before we go any further … if you’re considering Wordfind you should also consider dropping an extra $3 and getting the On-Core Game Pack Vol. 1 which also includes Sudoku and a picture puzzle game. But for $1.99 …

Just spotted this one via a post over at Gear Diary, and watched a video demo of this new iPhone ringtone making application called iRinger.
iRinger looks like a very good free option for ringtone creation - offering a very easy to use interface and a good, complete set of features - even down to letting you choose to export a newly created ringtone direct to iTunes or using SSH to directly transfer it to the iPhone.

Tap Tap Revenge - the super popular music and rhythm game for the iPhone - has been updated. Yesterday’s update added bug fixes, stability improvements - and an ability to download extra tracks.
You can choose to add additional tracks by degree of difficulty - easy, medium, hard, or extreme new ones for your tap tapping pleasure.
TTR is happily sitting at the top of the Most Popular free apps charts in the App Store for most of this week. Nice to see it already is being updated and adding features.
You can find TTR in the Games category of the App Store …

Hurrah! After a week of being held firmly in some bizarre sort of Apple limbo-land without much clue as to what obscure bit of paperwork was causing a holdup, Ilium’s eWallet application has finally made it to the iPhone App Store.
The app has been ready to go since before the App Store launched, so this last week has been intensely frustrating to eWallet users, fans, and of course to Ilium, who make this leading password manager program.
Thankfully, that’s all done with now - and eWallet is now available. For those who are unfamiliar with the application, it has long been a leader in the digital wallet / password manager category on Palm and Windows Mobile, and winner of awards many times over for best in class in its category. It’s been my personal favorite password keeper app for many years, and I’m very happy to see it on the iPhone.
The iPhone app looks and works wonderfully well in my usage so far. An old favorite looking better than ever on a new platform 
eWallet is available now at $9.99 in the Productivity category of the App Store.

"I gotta fever and the only prescription is more cowbell!"
One comedy skit that never fails to have me cracking up no matter how many times I see it is Saturday Night Live’s ‘More Cowbell’ with Will Ferrell and Christopher Walken in top, top form demanding more cowbell.
If you haven’t ever seen it, check the video clip HERE, or even the full Wikipedia entry for the whole scoop.
And now there’s a native app that brings the power of this skit to our iPhones. Cowbell presents you with this awesome instrument and lets you provide more cowbell while a track plays in the iPod app - and even occasionally harasses you when it feels the need for more cowbell!
Simple, useless, big fun …

Facebook’s iPhone application got a pretty major update tonight, adding a number of big wish list items - including writing on friends’ walls and viewing photo albums:
This updates brings the features you’ve been asking for: you can now write on your friends’ walls, view their photo albums, and see their full profiles. Photo browsing is more fun now with the addition of photo tags - just hold your finger down on a photo to make them appear. Photo uploading is also much faster, and you can finally upload pictures from your library that you’ve previously taken. Dozens of bug fixes have also been fixed, improving stability greatly.
This app is very slick all the way around now. I have to admit I have been only very occasional Facebook user for several months now, but this iPhone app is so nice to use I can seriously see myself updating and checking in on it more regularly now.
This update is out now. If you haven’t yet tried the native Facebook app, it’s definitely worthwhile - it’s free and can be found under the Social Networking category.
