Two iPhone apps I could use!
Yes, if I had an iPhone. I already do these things on my blackberry! But I think it is good for people who got the iPhone and want to do more than calling on it. Both are low bandwidth apps and good for AT&T's wonderful network.
Both are open source applications and if you like them you can further develop them. iMerse your selves.
App 1. iPhone ebooks - Books.app
Books.app is a simple eBook reader for the iPhone. It reads HTML and text files stored in your Media/EBooks folder, and is smart enough to enter subdirectories, if, for instance, you've broken a book down by chapters.
Eventually, this project will include a simple method of syncing eBooks to your iPhone. At the moment, that's handled by iPHUC and a shell script (eventually).
Books.app is recommended for use with Project Gutenberg texts, in conjunction with GutenMark, a fantastic PG markup tool by Ronald Burkey, which makes pretty HTML out of Gutenberg .txt files, and splits them by chapter using a second tool.
App 2. iGmail gateway
iGmail is a small gateway application which is simple and cool Gmail interface for Apple iPhone.
Demo site: http://igmail.naan.net/
In this demo site, your login details are not stored by naan.net. They are saved in a cookie of your iPhone. But, this server (Gateway) is not powerful (sometimes it's very slow), and it's not encrypted. If you worry about security of a third party server, please check out codes from svn repository and build your own server.
