Both Harbour Master & Flight Control are really good games; I bought both. HarbourMaster has the added thing where you have to wait for the ships to unload and then you have to move them our of port vs Flight Control where you 'just' have to land them.
There are quite a few other similar games with cars in a city, helicopters rescuing people and other similar themes. If you want to plan an addictive few games that had me playing for ages try out Peggle & Toki Tori
 
But if you want a REALLY addictive game, pay $0.99 and download Doodle Jump...THE most addictive game on the iPhone.
While you at it, try and beat my high score of 16249 :)
 
Absolute horror - just saw that there is a crack (about 5mm) leading up from the charger opening.

I have a 3G 8gig.

Phone never been dropped and is kept in a pouch most of the time.

Anyone has the same problem?

Will take it to the iStore (bought it from them0, but I'm not sure that it will be covered by warranty...

Is your iPhone black or white?

When I used to own the black one, I hadn't noticed any hairline cracks, now that I own the white one, black hair line cracks appear by the charge opening, along the volume buttons and around the sim card slot area. Nothing like yours, maybe 1mm, 2mm at the max. I'm not sure if it is caused by overheating or by dropping the device. Doesn't make sense though cos the lines are black (as if it was burnt) - a crack caused by the phone been dropped wouldn't just been white wouldn't it?

iTunes Firmware Download

Instead of having iTunes download the latest 3.0.1 firmware for example when doing a restore for the first time..

Is it possible to download the .ipsw directly and put it into the iTunes directory so iTunes thinks it downloaded it?

I have the .ipsw from a friend and dont want to bust my cap by getting iTunes to download it again..

Yes, it is possible to use the .ipsw file without downloading it again - google it...
 
If anyone is looking for a great case, I picked up one of these today http://www.speckproducts.com/products/candyshell/iphone-3g-iphone-3gs/162 I got the Dexter coloured one :) white with red accents. Really nice case, snug fit and looks the part and good price as well R240

give us a report after you've had it some time. I have a clear case that has www.dexim.net on the back. The url returns nothing. But what I have found is that the case starts to become loose. Wouldnt recommend it. It was only R99 though.
 
im looking for an app that is like putty. The only one i can find is pTerm but its $5. does anyone know of a free app like putty?
