Our new podcast: Meet...
We know. Podcasts are so last year - but this one you won't want to miss. Whether it’s a rumor that won’t die, a new product announcement, or just a really good Macintosh or iPhone app find that we have to let you know about, we’ll make sure it’s covered on Appletellcast.
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.






As the iPhone begins to shine as a portable gaming device, Apple plans to have a “premium games” area within the App Store for $19.99 titles. This move would separate the big titles from the silly $0.99 apps, but would only be open to the main publishers such as Electronic Arts. While this seems a good move, it would mean that independent publishers such as Ethan Nicholas, creator of iShoot, would be held back with the thousands of other applications.
This addition to the App Store confirms thoughts of the iPhone becoming a fully-fledged gaming device, and with more rumors of an iPhone 3 appearing, it would seem quite a safe bet.
Would you give up your Sony PSP or Nintendo DS for an iPhone/iPod touch for gaming? Sure, the bonus of your music library and WiFi is enough to sway some, but what about more serious gamers? I enjoy the games I have on my iPhone and play a lot of them regularly. Gaming is not my strong point, so a quick lap on FerarriGT or a short flight on X Plane is enough to keep me entertained.
