Another Top X iPhone Apps List

Just to jump on the bandwagon of all those “Top X” iPhone applications, I figured I’d give my two cents… for what it’s worth. I have a first generation iPhone (still debating whether to bother upgrading or not) and as such only have EDGE connectivity. I’ve noticed that using the …
