hey if you guys play music out the speakers so you get sound out both wide ports on the bottom or just one? It seems mine just cones out the one on the left. If I cover just that hole I can silence it. ---

A few games I grabbed and installed from the AppStore Line Rider - Little game where you draw lines and a guy on a sled follows it. FPLite - Virtua Fighter like game. Pretty cool. Star Wars Force unleashed - Impressive game. Fun to play and uses the touch interface to fight and use the force X-Plane - Flight simulator for the iPhone. Awesome graphics and cool controls that use the accelerometer ---

has anyone (with a jailbroken phone) tried tethering it yet? I’m interested in this for use at work. seems like a simple and cost effective way to get basic browsing on a laptop (as long as you don’t go too crazy with data transfers) when no wifi is available. Has ATT kicked anyone from this? I know it violates their TOS, but so does the pandora app and the youtube app (not allowed to use 3G/Edge for streaming audio or video) ---

You will just start being billed per kilobyte without you knowing if they catch you. ---

Downloaded a cool little freebie called “Speed”. Used the GPS to show your speed. Only works from about 5mph and up but seemed extremely accurate in the car. Really more interested in using it on the boat since stock boat speedometers are horribly inaccurate. Maybe with this the wife can finally hold a steady speed when I’m wakeboarding. ---

lol yeah, keep watch on the app store. I noticed a few that are being given away for “X” amount of time, before they start charging for it. ---

Maybe with this the wife can finally hold a steady speed when I’m wakeboarding. I wonder if this is a new feature that was included in 2.1 that allows the tracking of speed and direction now.
